The absence of modern planes now is not, in fact, a reflection of the current state of the industry but of the postcollapse crisis of the 1990s — the lead time is long on new plane designs.
The logistic area is not available near the line far distance from the main warehouses; thus, the order of completion lead time is long and is influenced by probable accidents.
Lead times are long and investments can be small.
Conversely, when lead times are long, only the retailers hold safety stocks and they do not offer express deliveries.
It is tempting to specify and order equipment at an early stage in the completion design process, especially when lead times are long and project execution looms.
Consequently, new transparent armor system development lead times are long, the costs are quite high and many shortcomings of the systems become apparent only after they have been fielded.
From a channel perspective, shelf space is scarce and expensive, marketing costs are high, lead times are long, the environment is demanding, and product assortments are rarely dictated at the individual store level.
If the rate of cancers in the first screening round is much higher than rates in later screening rounds, this means that there are many slow-growing tumours (and that the mean lead time is therefore long).
Thus, a drastic reduction in production lead time is possible as long as all of the facilities composing cellular-lines in the system are reliable.
Monthly streamflow forecasts with long lead time are being sought by water managers in Australia.
A long lead time is needed for television projects and managers were unhappy that Guthrie seemed oblivious of their need for certainty.
