Kind of figured something to defend inventory "sitting on the dock would emerge" even though you bemoaned "the same thing in post 13361, i.e. "Unpaid, undelivered product on the dock resulting in lower revenue was very disappointing, even in the face of continuing better basics.." Nevertheless, comparing driving a car prior to buying it and running a Capstone Turbine Assembly in situ on the dock and in the field are two entirely different animals. The Capstone may work fine on the dock but after crating, shipping, installing on site, etc. it may not. In either case I'm sure Capstone technicians would be on site immediately should the unit not perform properly in the field. I wonder how many customers actually refuse delivery until they see a unit running on the shipping dock? This is not like buying a car in either case.
I'm sure each Capstone Turbine is delivered and has a spec sheet with run trials and performance data included.
No qualms about the non-payment delaying delivery. My thought on the run trial was that if the customer indicated in their purchase order that they wanted to witness a performance trial at the plant, management should have done everything possible to make it happen in a timely manner so the sells numbers would reflect in Q1.
