Storage conditions quietly determine how Nex 3 performs months after production.

Seasonality interacts with storage and shelf life more than most forecasts allow for, so a rolling review beats an annual one.
Why storage and shelf life matters on the Nex 3

Commercial terms
Freight terms should be named explicitly, because an unclear incoterm is the fastest way to lose a relationship.
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.

| Pallet (1553 units) | Tier 2 | 7-12 days |
| Container (9241 units) | Tier 3 | 21-30 days |
