Average Days from Order to Receipt
Supplier lead time measures the average number of days between placing a purchase order and receiving the goods. It drives inventory planning and cash flow timing.
Why It Matters
Long and unpredictable lead times force you to carry more safety stock, tying up cash. Short, reliable lead times let you run leaner and respond to demand faster.
How Novastra Helps
Novastra negotiates supplier performance agreements, builds vendor scorecards, and designs multi-source procurement strategies that reduce lead time risk.
