Concept information
Preferred term
transport delays
Definition
- Global commerce depends on the smooth, reliable movement of materials, parts, and finished goods through their respective supply chains. However, as supply chains become more globalized with longer distances and lead times, there are greater possibilities for a shipment to be in transit longer than its expected delivery time.
