agree  Desmond O'Rourke: lead time = time between planning a thing and starting to do it. For example, the time needed before a manufacturer will begin work on a complex product after which toimitusaika is set. Better viive, viivitys.
3 hrs
agree  Timo Lehtilä: Babylon says: "period of time that passes from the beginning of an activity to its completion, total time spent on an activity"
