Dave, Gerald, >From my experience with product fulfillment: a good plan would establish a target date when the product would be broadly available in the market with only occasional shortages. A key to this is to show back orders as a % of weekly production, and whether back orders are reducing or increasing as we fulfill back orders and receive new orders each week. There would be a weekly review of whether the target date is likely to be met, production plan and any changes, and a new date, if needed. Sudden orders and other unexpected situations are common in all kinds of fulfillment situations and there are lots of good systems to deal with this.
I am happy to volunteer to do weekly analytics. elinux.org only shows monthly shipments, with little clue around demand and back order situation. It is nice to know that "circuitco is in full production" but we need to provide lots more facts.
