Supplier quote delay in the Darlington education market
When an MSP account executive requests a connectivity quote for a Darlington school or MAT, the average supplier wait timescale is often measured in working days, not hours. Using a conservative 8‑working‑hour average delay, the cumulative effect across five quotes per day can meaningfully reduce the time available for direct customer engagement and pipeline development. This is a capacity review opportunity, subject to supplier confirmation and local contract conditions.
