Running Out of Patience (and Equipment)? When It’s Time to Change Suppliers

When Delays and Excuses Become a Pattern

The cost of unreliable suppliers isn’t just frustration—it’s downtime, missed production targets, and broken trust. Plant managers can’t afford to wait endlessly.

5 Red Flags You Shouldn’t Ignore

  • Chronic Delivery Delays: Your forklifts and parts are always “arriving next week.”
  • Radio Silence on Service: Maintenance calls go unanswered for days—or weeks.
  • Repeated Excuses: From “supply chain issues” to “short staff”—the same stories repeat.
  • Missed SLAs: Service level agreements are routinely ignored or “reinterpreted.”
  • Zero Accountability: No timelines, no resolutions—just more frustration.

Steps to Make the Switch Smooth

  • Audit Your Contract: Understand notice periods and exit clauses before acting.
  • Secure Your Next Source: Identify backup vendors with in-stock inventory and service guarantees.
  • Inform Your Team: Communicate the change early to keep everyone aligned.
  • Phase the Transition: Avoid operational gaps by planning delivery, training, and support timelines.
