We heard of manufacturers with thousands of incomplete forklifts in their factories, most just waiting for
one or two parts. Then there are delivery time blow-outs, with some customers facing delays of a year or more when they place an order. And further, there are the financial ramifications, with suppliers doing all they can to accommodate rising costs and avoid passing them all on to buyers, especially those with firm quotes in place.
