Meridian Drivetrain — rate-contract renewal, 2026-2718 Aug, 5:30 am · 48 min · Priya's phone, on the table, with their purchase head's agreement · 87% sure overall

Their purchase head opened with the volume: schedule up four percent for the second half, brackets and housings both. They want a three percent price-down on renewal, standard for their supplier base this year. Deepak said we would come back by the thirty-first with a number, not a yes or no. Payment terms stay at sixty days; they will not move to forty-five. Priya to send the revised schedule confirmation and the IATF scope by Friday. Their SQA head asked for the hole-pitch corrective action in writing before the next audit.

Heard “hole-pitch”, 71% sure:

Heads' review — the week, and the export enquiry24 Aug, 4:30 am · 52 min · The room's own microphone, with everyone told before it started · 88% sure overall

Anil opened on the dispatch number. Seventy-one per cent on the promised date for the twelve months, and the target this year is eighty-five. Vinod said the tracker is filled at the end of the shift, so a truck that leaves at seven is logged as the next day. The number is worse than the reality but nobody knows by how much. Prakash raised the German enquiry — a Stuttgart tier-two asking about housings, through the Pune trade office. Shubhangi said IATF scope covers it but the PPAP would need a level three submission and that is six to eight weeks. Anil asked Prakash to find out whether they want a sample or a quote first, before anybody spends time on PPAP. Meera flagged that two heads have not yet responded on their department goals.

Heard “PPAP would need a level three submission”, 72% sure:

Task: created: Ask the Stuttgart enquiry whether they want a sample or a quote first — Prakash, before Friday
from: “Anil asked Prakash to find out whether they want a sample or a quote first, before anybody spends time on PPAP.”
Task: created: Establish how far the dispatch tracker's end-of-shift entry moves the on-time number — Vinod, this week
from: “Vinod said the tracker is filled at the end of the shift, so a truck that leaves at seven is logged as the next day. The number is worse than the reality but nobody knows by how much.”
Key result · Dispatched on the promised date: instrument: dispatch tracker → instrument disputed — the tracker records the shift, not the hour
from: “Vinod said the tracker is filled at the end of the shift, so a truck that leaves at seven is logged as the next day. The number is worse than the reality but nobody knows by how much.”
