Why shipping and logistics matters on the Zen

Commercial terms
Commercial terms are usually agreed in three parts: a deposit on confirmation, a balance before shipment and a stated validity window.
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.

|---|---|---|
| Carton (126 units) | Tier 1 | 14-21 days |
| Pallet (746 units) | Tier 2 | 14-21 days |
| Container (18256 units) | Tier 3 | 21-30 days |
