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.

| Carton (194 units) | Tier 1 | 21-30 days |
| Pallet (729 units) | Tier 2 | 7-12 days |
| Container (17754 units) | Tier 3 | 7-12 days |
