[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 17019, member: 126"] Re: Parts availability: How to destroy a brand I am familiar with how hard it is to forecast production with several thousand mile long supply chains, I suspect managing repair parts will be significantly harder...especially with new technology platform roll outs. How do you forecast, precisely how many of which specific repair parts to stock in advance. Surely for a mature product family that has been in production for some time the repair parts pipeline will be easier to manage. Relatively new stuff can experience problems with isolated parts. Are these products well above the disposable category? If you are experiencing 3-4 month wait for parts from multiple different companies, it must be a conspiracy. Maybe you are being singled out. Do you ever post on the internet? [img]http://www.soundforums.net/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif[/img] Or maybe you are just very lucky. JR [/QUOTE]
