Yeah, I've definitely noticed it too. Our site has seen a bit of a lull in new orders compared to this time last year. We've had a couple of equipment maintenance periods extended, which is unusual for us. Management's been quiet, but there's a definite sense that things are being watched closely. Hoping it's just a seasonal dip, but it's hard not to feel a bit uneasy when the pace changes like this.
Interesting you bring this up. My team has been dealing with a few more delays on material delivery from other suppliers, which has a knock-on effect on our production schedules. It's not just internal, it feels like the broader economic climate is starting to impact the industry. The 'efficiency reviews' are definitely ramping up across the board, so perhaps they're just trying to get ahead of any potential issues.
