UATH always our priority for Houghton. Even, we have other products on the plan we try best to work in supporting you.
In this case, we have discussed internally and will try to push it faster to be 1 June 2016 afternoon. ( please understand that we have some agreement platform and system internally our plant)
As you seen that we have forecast of in the beginning of month to be 24 Bulks form your last forecast input in Mar , Later on 5 May we got more information for ship date of 32 bulks.
By current agreement, we will prepare 8 bulks stock after shipping the Tandemol in each shipment (So we prepare for around 8 bulks/ week or shipment by primary information)
However, besides forecast , Actual PO will bring us to proceed internal production follow PO. We need around 5 working days after PO to proceed production and shipment for you.
In this case after getting PO on 24 May and request for 16 bulks on 25 May 2016 that a bit special case than normal, we already prepare 8 bulks stock , so can send us on 25 May 2016 as planned. Along this we have set plan to produce more new batch 8 bulks to you in week later (In this case , we plan for 2 June shipment , now will move it faster to be 1 June 2016 to support this case)
I have a bit discussed with Khun Sumethee in way forward , UATH may plan for whole week target shipment date beginning of month for us, Later Kindly help to arrange PO earlier as possible to ensure the process of shipment for Houghton internally. Hope this can work for us all in June, please confirm the way forward.
So all of these will not relevant that plant capacity, We still only work for 1 shift and can have more capacity to support you. In urgent case, we will adjust our internal plan to support you as always and as we show you in last dumping in Feb-Mar ( Some OT and adjust plan have been done before)
In case of 50 bulks /month, We believe we can support that case, just let us know when it will be and we should adjust our agreement from what we agree now ( may be 16 bulks / week / shipment or etc. ) to make it suitable for us all.
We can discuss more together when we have met next week if any more clarification.
