I’ll first check whether this has already been investigated, then I’ll pull supplier-level purchasing data and look for any qualitative notes about delivery problems so I can name the worst on-time performer with context.

Conclusion
The supplier with the worst on-time delivery record appears to be Reichert Inc Manufacturing. I found direct supplier notices from Reichert warning of ongoing lead-time extensions and fulfillment delays, including a March 10 notice about “ongoing lead time extensions” and a later notice about orders arriving later than originally scheduled. Supporting shipping records for Reichert also show long transit times on individual purchase orders, including 14, 15, and 20 days. While I don’t have a structured on-time percentage field in the database, the available delivery documents point most strongly to Reichert as the poorest on-time performer among the suppliers reviewed.
Proposed follow-up: Review Reichert Inc Manufacturing delivery performance
Investigate Reichert Inc Manufacturing’s lead-time extensions and repeated late deliveries, and determine whether we should escalate to the supplier or adjust ordering plans.
