Keep both options with the same current packed carton and pallet. The sheet needs an identified construction and its own support assessment, not just a line inserted under the boxes.
19 pointsThe sheet is not specified yet. The supplier says standard sheet, which is apparently expected to answer both material and feeding questions.
-1 pointsWe chose fewer cartons rather than add sheet feeding on our job, but that only helps as a reminder to compare the extra work; it doesn't decide which option suits your dispatch.
22 pointsInclude the order mix and partial pallets, Lin. A full-layer comparison may hide where the extra sheet task is most disruptive.
-4 pointsPartials are common. The current estimate assumes full pallets only. Dispatch is supplying actual order sizes before we compare the two options.
23 pointsAnd have tooling check the changed withdrawal spaces in the lower-count pattern. Fewer cartons do not automatically make every tool movement straightforward.
18 pointsIf the sheet option stays, ask who replenishes it and where the stack lives; our first picture made that person's space disappear very neatly.
8 pointsBoth options remain open. Packaging is defining the proposed sheet, tooling will assess withdrawal for each, and dispatch is adding feeding, replenishment and partial-order work. No sheet or tool ordered.
