Performance Summary:
•
•
•
Cycle Times increased in January due to Bank Holidays
and delayed orders closing as tail volumes reduced. To
date, in February, cycle times have stabilised as orders are
flowing through with shorter lead times Overall cycle time
has been heavily impacted by PSTN lead times which
determine SIM Provide delivery timescales.
On time delivery was flat through January, again impacted
by tail closure . Performance will remain flat as failed
orders are closed but new orders will see improved
performance.
FTTC on time delivery has recovered following resolution
of the Faulty D-side issue in December . Performance was
impacted by bad weather in January but has been on an
upward trajectory through February to date.
