Delivery on time is a very serious business.
Added 31 Jul 2008
Every job is required at a specific time...... The board of directors must have their reports. A mining company must have a wheel bearing for a hundred tonne truck refurbished on time. The warehouse must have stock replenishment for plumbing fittings so it can service its customers. Our CEO takes off at 10 am and needs the paperwork on time. Will we miss the truck that takes our product to the port for a specific containerised shipment. Will we miss the courier that was told to get here at a specific time.
We can get really specific with deliveries from the date required to both the time and date required. So as you can see in these examples we are precise, but lets get really accurate and get down to partial deliveries - and the management of partial quantities, stock draw offs and times and dates.
