on-time delivery
Meeting the deadline
On-time delivery is the arrival of goods or services by the promised date.
It's a key performance metric in logistics, supply chain management, and service industries: Our on-time delivery rate improved to 97% this quarter.
The term often appears in contracts specifying penalties for late fulfillment.
