GTI/GTD Order Date vs. Build Week Analysis
« on: 22 May 2013, 16:07 »
Hi Guys,

Please follow the below link to a form you can fill in with your order details.  Don't worry there is nothing personal asked for on the form.  This should help us put some stats together to understand what might be causing the delays in some/all orders.  I may post some graphs as a result of this but I won't post any specific details such as names/dates/order numbers.  I don't believe this information is sensitive but I won't post it anyway.  Giving a unique nickname is important to ensure there are not duplicates, and giving as much detail on dates and numbers is helpful, but don't feel you have to!

Some initial analysis.  Looking at the order numbers, with a couple of odd exceptions (and I also corrected what appeared to be some typos, its not 2012 any more guys!), there is a correlation between when you order and the number you get.

However, there is no correlation between the order you get and your estimated BW!

Thanks to those who provided the entire order number.  This is very helpful and soon I should be able to compare order number to website status and see if there is a correlation there.





I am aware much of this info has been posted in threads and one of the stickys, but we're having a hard time keeping track of it so this would help a lot.

UPDATE: I noticed one or two of you have gone back and filled the form in again with more data.  This is good!  As long as you use the same nickname you can do this and I can see that additional information has been added, rather than a duplicate entry.

Bear.

Ok I guess people are happy as they're filling it in already.  I'll remove the request for feedback!  :tongue:

Hopefully when enough of us have entered details we'll see some patterns emerge.  I'll update the original post when that happens.

Done. Looks good Bear.

(might want to check the spelling of Adaptive (for ACC) on the form)  :grin:

Also, although you have only asked for 4 numbers minimum of the o/n, it won't let you do that and doesn't allow 1234xxxx for instance - so I just put down my full order number - between you and me eh ?

Yeah, I have problems with speelings.  My bad on the order number.  I thought it would allow xxxx.  Anyone who doesn't want to give their full number (which I won't pass on if you do) please just use for example 22220000, with 0000 in place of the digits you are leaving out.  Need to see at least the first 4 though, preferable the whole number.
