Check carton quantities against the commercial invoice line by line.
Retain one sealed sample carton from every batch for reference.

Review the reorder point after one full selling cycle.
Request batch photographs and a packing list prior to shipment.

Commercial terms

Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.

Agreeing a defect handling procedure before the first shipment removes emotion from later conversations.

Carton (94 units)	Tier 1	30-45 days
Pallet (766 units)	Tier 2	7-12 days

All figures above are indicative working ranges used for planning. Final specification and commercial terms are confirmed in writing before any deposit.
