English term or phrase: expedites
Bonjour, je ne comprends pas le sens du terme "expedites" dans la phrase suivante : "Within three weeks the on-time delivery improved to 87% from 72% by realizing reductions in lead time from 10 days to 2 days, expedites from 185 per week to 1 per week, and components past due from 37 to 5."
S'agit-il d'un verbe ? Signifie-t-il "expéditions" ici ? D'avance, merci de me donner votre avis.

envois en urgence/hors planification
Explanation:
On-time delivery to requested date without expedites
One of the hardest measures to gain agreement on is on time delivery. We recommend that companies track their on time delivery to the date requested by the customer without expedited processes (pick and pack or shipment). This means measuring that product shipped when the customer asked--not when a company can ship.

mon avis....


Explanation:
je pense que "expedites" doit vouloir dire "expéditions en urgence", "envois "express"- autrement dit, probablement par manque d'efficacité, ils avaient l'habitude d'envoyer des articles dont le client avait besoin tout de suite sous forme de colis express (donc plus cher) pour ratrapper des retards dans leurs livraisons. Maintenant le nombre de colis express a baissé de 185 à un par semaine et ils peuvent effectuer leurs envois en colis "normal" donc à moindre frais

A mon avis l'auteur du texte n'est pas de langue maternelle anglaise
