The rush order of clips shipped on time

Going well

The clips left on the customer's booked truck, likely because molding began soon after the order came in.

What happenedA customer's rush order of clips shipped on the day it was promised. It was molded and boxed two days early, so it only waited for the truck.
Why it mattersA customer got a rush order when promised, and the share of orders shipped on time rose.
How to keep it upPlan the next rush order the same way, on a press that already makes the part.

The rush clip order, step by step

The ERP shows when the rush order came in, when each step started or finished, and when it shipped. Molding started hours after the order came in, so the clips were packed two days before they were due.
