Material arrives late or wrong and run cannot continue
If material is late or wrong, protect the path and communicate the next affected work instead of hiding the delay.
Watch out
- Do not grab a close-enough fitting or hardware just to keep moving.
Check
- Identify exactly what is missing/wrong.
- Check if a temporary task can continue safely.
- Tell foreman what work is blocked.
- Do not substitute unapproved parts.
- Stage existing material so it does not get mixed with wrong pieces.

Say this to your foreman
This run is blocked because material is missing/wrong. What should we work on next, and do you want this documented?
