What is Delivery Cycle Time?

A delivery cycle time is defined as the total amount of time it takes for a customer to receive an item once ordered. It includes both the average wait time and the total throughput time, providing a comprehensive measure of the efficiency of the delivery process.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{DCT} = 5 + 10 = 15 \, \text{days} \]

The delivery cycle time is 15 days.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{DCT} = 3 + 7 = 10 \, \text{days} \]

The delivery cycle time is 10 days.
