What this is

The share of orders due each week that shipped by the promised date.

Counted each week from the ERP order records, which hold each order's promised and ship dates.

Why it matters

A late order is the problem a customer sees first, and a pattern of them costs you the next quote.

Last week

92%

This week

93%

The best week so far, as the queue at welding shrank to half a day of work.
