The specifics that make or break a facility in this sector.
Lenders need to be comfortable with deposit / milestone / completion billing. Specialist manufacturing IF handles it natively.
Asset-based lending against raw materials and WIP can double the available headroom on top of receivables.
Returns, warranty claims and credit notes get scrutinised; clean QA and credit-note records keep advance rates high.
Single large customers and overseas debtors are funded by lenders with credit-insurance overlays and multi-currency capability.
