Could you restrict it to one steady bag family, or does that leave too little work to justify the setup? That's the first price comparison I'd make.
9 pointsI would want someone else to prepare that steady family too. If only Lin knows the little adjustments, the apparently settled product still has a support cost.
13 pointsThe plain screw kits are steady. Only a small share of orders. Two packers can prepare those without me now.
21 pointsThat gives you a real limited option then. It might lose on volume, but at least it's not another promise that one more guide fixes every bag.
-1 pointsDoes that small share arrive in useful runs or scattered among mixed orders? I mean the actual order sequence, not just the monthly quantity.
16 pointsGood catch, Naomi. Grouping them could save setup time while making somebody else wait for their order; purchasing numbers alone won't show that.
8 pointsMostly mixed orders. I'm shelving the next guide and asking planning to price the screw-only option against our current packing route. Not selling the robot on the strength of one annoying afternoon.
4 pointsPost what they find. Particularly whether batching those kits helps packing overall or only makes the trial look less awkward.
