I have the support strips and proposed finger channels in one section now. Packaging has marked the current carton construction; tooling still shows the previous one. Same external dimensions. Different bearing areas. Which proposal are we supposedly reviewing?
Both are still being packed. Purchasing expects the old stock to run out, but no cutoff agreed. The current drawing only covers the newer construction.
Compare the two packed samples in the affected positions first. It may expose a common workable arrangement, or show that they need separate treatment. No point ordering two tools just because the first shared drawing is wrong.
The supplier labels have different construction codes. We have kept examples. Receiving can distinguish them, but the proposed job sheet names only the product.
Ella, ask packaging and tooling to mark their observations against both codes on the same comparison. It will be easier to see whether they found a real incompatibility or merely reviewed different cartons.
