Bill, do you know the method of shipping of parts coming out of Taiwan?

Are components coming by air or by ship? If parts are shipped by air then smaller warehouses can handle parts for JIT. If components are coming by ship then the stateside supplier would need to warehouse components between shipments thus a supply would be on hand to handle the short term demand but could result in a longer term disruption based on shipping dates.

Components from the stateside warehouses can meet short term demand thus getting you a Dell PC in 5 days not 6.

Your thoughts?
