key (working) parts


Explanation:
Looks as if these "Teile" are being selected on the basis of durability, so possibly "key parts"?

BTW, what exactly IS being manufactured?

I know this word


Explanation:
as "Langläufer" and think the same is meant.
Parts which when ordered have a long time to be supplied. So ordering them has to be planned as early as possible (this is meant by planungsintensiv) in order to be on the spot for assembly when needed.

But I do not really have a suggestion for translation now, sorry.
