I'm really wondering what their cycle time will be on this new product.
It's a customized product (slightly, but significantly non-standard).
How they can perform on this activity - order fulfillment etc. will be a BIG
indicator of how they might perform on customized orders in the future....

Also, this is their first product with a non-standard Bill-of Material.
I hate to think of the potential headaches that this is causing their MRP
system.  They probably won't answer that though.

I don't think this will be any more difficult than any other S@H order with a
variety of items. My guess is that you'll find that each bag has a "set" number
on it, and you'll see those set numbers on your invoice. Then the only custom
thing is the instructions, but those just come out of the printer with the
invoice (may be the same printer, with two paper trays, one for the 1/2 sticker
- 1/2 plain paper invoice, and one for the plain paper for the instructions, or
two separate printers). Now I could be wrong, but that's sure how I'd do it.
The interesting part will be what will S@H do when you call up the next day and
order N copies of the "set" which is the bulk pack of 1x1 plates of the new
grey...
