Commercial terms
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
Commercial terms are usually agreed in three parts: a deposit on confirmation, a balance before shipment and a stated validity window.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (180 units) | Tier 1 | 30-45 days |
| Pallet (1960 units) | Tier 2 | 21-30 days |
| Container (8328 units) | Tier 3 | 14-21 days |
Frequently asked questions
How can Stark currency risk be reduced?
Agree a currency and a validity window in writing, and consider hedging only the larger seasonal builds.
How quickly can a repeat order be produced?
For established configurations production typically runs two to four weeks, with transit on top depending on the chosen method.
Is documentation provided for customs?
Commercial invoice, packing list and the relevant certificates are supplied; the importer's broker handles the declaration.
Do you support long term supply agreements?
Yes, rolling agreements with defined review points work better for both sides than rigid annual commitments.
Final word
Start with one change, measure it over a quarter, then decide whether it deserves to become policy.
