In-depth Use Case / Real-world Example

A company manufacturing medical instruments tracks Order Lead Time Variability to understand the consistency of order processing times. If orders typically take 10 days to fulfill, but sometimes take 7 days and other times take 15 days, this variability can cause operational inefficiencies. Reducing variability leads to more predictable inventory and production planning.
