Logistics · The lead time record · Element

The actual times

Measured lead time per route or supplier.

The part

What it is

Measured door to door rather than for the transport leg alone, since the handling at each end is frequently the larger part.

The record needs enough observations to show a distribution rather than a handful of anecdotes.

The smallest level

The attributes it carries

Each attribute is one of the framework’s shared types. What a date is, and how it is written, is defined once for the whole model — the note here says what it means in this particular place.
