Re: Early build engines to late build cars
I agree.
Here are some of the Manufacturing and scheduling issues that could cause date abnormalities with drivetrain components at Norwood.
A QA/QC hold at blocks at the foundry, or at the Mfg plant. (Flint MI or Tonawanda NY)
Scheduling or logistical problems with the rail road and inclement weather (snow storm -floods-mechanical rail problems)
Railroad strikes, teamster strikes
Strikes at the foundry or the Mfg plant
Problems with Logistics and Application 35 lead time build scheduling. Errors here were miss counts and just Having enough workers to get the rail and trucks loaded and then unloaded timely and in the build system to meet the established production schedule. No bar code scanners yet it was a manual count.
