replenishment interval/replenishment time Explanation: The time it takes to replenish the stock of sth. A lot more googles on time, but the hits on interval are still highly relevant (I think...) in your case. Reference: http://www.google.com/search?hl=sv&rls=GGLG%2CGGLG%3A2005-37...

replacement time Explanation: Based on FAR's definition of återanskaffning. (But yes, more context would be good). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 12 hrs (2006-02-28 05:03:35 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "These nine standard configurations eliminate the requirement for stocking hundreds of unique MFC part numbers and therefore reduce inventory carrying costs. Furthermore, MultiFlo® technology reduces average replacement time from more than four hours to minutes for conventional MFCs, plus there are no reconfiguration costs associated with live gas re-calibration. " http://www.celerity.net/3.1.gas.html http://www.classicvolvoparts.co.uk/pages/BrookhouseContents.... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 12 hrs (2006-02-28 05:07:49 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I think - from looking at these and other info - that replacement time is the time from placing an order to receiving a part. Would that make sense in your context? |

lead time Explanation: I think this is the more usual, perhaps slightly colloquial term. Can also say "fulfilment lead time" etc. See ref for good example of usage. Reference: http://www.corelogistics.com.au/Inventory_management_lead_ti... |
