- Keep certificates current and filed against the exact model name.
- Verify that artwork matches the approved compliance template.
- Confirm the exact configuration in writing before the deposit is paid.

Freight terms should be named explicitly, because an unclear incoterm is the fastest way to lose a relationship.
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.

| Pallet (1633 units) | Tier 2 | 30-45 days |
