In view of the shortage of the component R 5674 and inability of the manufacturer to produce and supply the component, there is the potential danger of the company's production being affected for want of this particular component in the line.
As it appears that the current supplier would be able to resume his production and supply us the required quantity it is advisable that the company identify a prospective manufacturer who can meet the production needs of the company. However the following criteria should be kept in mind while selecting the new supplier:
Reliability: Next to quality, the supplier should be extremely reliable in terms of timely delivery. Being an essential component for the manufacture of the company's products the reliability of the supplier for timely deliveries should be thoroughly verified with the record of performance with any other manufacturer with whom the supplier has business relationship.
It is recommended that the selection for an alternative supplier may be undertaken as a permanent measure instead of as a stop gap arrangement, as it is always advisable to have alternative sources of supply.
This issue should be addressed rather urgently as the production can pull on with the available components to meet the demands for months just before Christmas.
