What went wrong
Gate witness landed on a cosmetic face because nobody asked which face the customer sees.
What to do differently
Add a cosmetic face question to the quote intake. It costs one line and saves a hand blend on every part.
Notes
Cleanest variance on record. Tooling came in under quote and per piece landed within a dime.
