Commercial terms
Volume commitments work best when they are structured as a rolling target rather than a single fixed number.
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (146 units) | Tier 1 | 14-21 days |
| Pallet (1380 units) | Tier 2 | 30-45 days |
| Container (9785 units) | Tier 3 | 14-21 days |

What shelf life should a Stark Ultra order assume?
Plan around twelve to twenty four months depending on format, and rotate stock accordingly.
Can packaging be adjusted for our market?
