For production management, being reliable means delivering the product with the quality required by customers on the date agreed with the customer. This agreed date, in most cases, cannot be off, as the client also demands speed. In many cases, the date is imposed by the customer and it is up to the company to decide whether to produce and deliver on the agreed date or whether to reject the order. Depending on the industry, in the Just in Time model , the agreed delivery can be accurate to hours or even minutes and cannot be delayed or anticipated. However, in general, delivery dates are agreed and tolerance for delay is low.
