On-Time In-Full (OTIF) is a supply chain performance metric that measures whether a business delivers the correct quantity of products to the right location within the agreed-upon timeframe.
OTIF highlights a company’s ability to meet customer expectations by ensuring deliveries are both timely and complete. It reflects operational efficiency and is critical in maintaining trust with customers and partners. A high OTIF rate minimizes disruptions, reduces penalties for non-compliance, and supports long-term business growth.
On-Time In-Full works by integrating accurate demand forecasting, efficient logistics planning, and seamless communication with suppliers and customers. It benefits your business by enhancing supply chain reliability, reducing costs associated with late or incomplete deliveries, and improving customer loyalty. A strong On-Time In-Full (OTIF) performance sets your business apart as a dependable partner, paving the way for greater market success.
