Thomas Riesterer, NedCard: "Limited experience with new material and technology combinations."
Chris Richardson, Navico: "Quotations are often based on area/layer rather than detail/specs, so time is wasted chasing cheaper suppliers to ensure they understand documentation."
Gil Leal, Emerson: "Lead time."
