All 7 Documented Cases
Idle Equipment and Production Halts from Component Delays
$500K+ per month in idle capacity (based on 12-40 week electronics delays impacting output)Long-lead components cause manufacturing lines to idle while awaiting parts, creating bottlenecks and lost production capacity. In agriculture, construction, and mining machinery, delays of 20-78 weeks halt assembly of critical equipment like turbines and custom lines. This results in queues, missed shipments, and forgone sales opportunities.
Bottlenecks and Workflow Disruptions from Tracking Delays
$X annually (lost throughput due to recurring delays; not dollar-specific in sources)Traditional tracking in multi-stage manufacturing fails to provide real-time insights, causing bottlenecks, idle equipment, and disrupted material flows between assembly stages. Managers cannot quickly identify and resolve delays, leading to lost production capacity and queues. Automated systems like RTLS are needed to reroute materials and minimize downtime.
Rush Orders and Premium Pricing for Long-Lead Components
$100K+ per delayed project (estimated from 20-30 week extensions at premium rates)Long-lead-time components in machinery manufacturing force rush orders when delays occur, incurring premium pricing and expedited shipping costs. Suppliers charge higher rates due to constrained capacity and inventory shortages, leading to excessive procurement expenses. This is recurring across projects as lead times fluctuate unpredictably.
Project Delays and Client Churn from Procurement Lead Time Overruns
$1M+ per delayed project (from schedule threats and churn)Extended lead times jeopardize construction and machinery project timelines, causing customer dissatisfaction and lost contracts. Clients abandon deals due to unreliable delivery promises for long-lead equipment. Recurring in project-based industries where milestones depend on timely component arrival.
