BRONCO JULY PRODUCTION SCHEDULING MEMO
Below is information to support conversations with your Bronco order holders about the upcoming July Production scheduling.
Background
Ford's production process is dynamic and based on a number of real time factors including reservation timestamp, orders available for scheduling, part availability, and the number of Bronco vehicles each dealer receives. While timestamp is a key factor, the scheduling system will continue to go down the list until it finds a clean/eligible order based on that month’s production requirements and part availability. Make sure all your orders are ready for scheduling.

July Production Notes
- Soft Top Production Opportunity
- Customers looking to get their Bronco as soon as possible should consider changing their order from hard top to soft top by May 19, ahead of July production scheduling period
- Based on current mix of soft top production and the number of available orders in order bank, a large number of soft top orders with very late time stamps will schedule for July production
- Trailer Tow & Safari Bar Scheduling
- These commodities are in short supply for July production
- Encourage customers that want to get their Bronco’s earlier to remove these options from their orders
- Wildtrak & First Edition Scheduling
- These series will have limited July production due to hard top availability
