Constraint Reports
 

Many have asked to have Constraints as a sticky thread. This post will be updated with a link each week to the most recent constraint thread. Older thread references will be kept so you can see a history of the constraints.

Awesome thank you so much!

Thank you!! :thumbs:

Thank you. I will hopefully receive "the call" tomorrow. :cheers:

subscribed thanks for doing this

Thanks :cheers:

Will there be an update today to this, or is Last Week's update the information for this week also? thanks!

Steve

:iagree:

I truly appreciate this sticky... But you must know this is my crack and I need my weekly fix! lol

Come on Z where is this weeks candy? Please!!!! I am jonesin...

Doc

Subscribing for updates. waiting for the convertible Z06 release!

Sorry guys, no info available yet. May be delayed until tomorrow.

Thanks for keeping us updated.

Thank you, please know I was just having fun with you. We really do appreciate all the work!

Dave

Updated, but nobody is going to like it. No allocations this week.

ah **** no z06 allocation again ugh!..... 1st round people were dang lucky.

:lurk::lurk::lurk::lurk:

I guess I'll be able to eat a lot of popcorn waiting on the Z06 A8! :toetap:

Thanks for the updates. Very much appreciated.

Well, I'm getting a convertible. looks like I'll have popcorn coming out of my ears by the time those orders start going in.

Zymurgy, I'm not as familiar with the order process as I want to be. What are the implications of 'no allocations this week'? I'm assuming it impacts the ordered units not yet scheduled for production.

It affects those sitting at 1100. At 1100, all you've got is an order number. It may never get built. The next step is for your dealer to get an allocation and assign that allocation to your order. Within a few days of that happening, you will go to 2000 and then to 3000 very quickly. However, in order for the dealer to be able to assign your order to an allocation, the following must be true:

1) The dealer has an allocation
2) You're "next in line" at your dealer
2) That allocation must include any constrained items in your order

If all those conditions are met, the dealer assigns the allocation to your order and you are on your way. If the dealer has an allocation and it does not allow a constrained item in your order, they should contact you to see if you want to change your order. If you do not change your order, they will go to the next person on their waiting list and repeat this until they get a match (or they'll just order one for dealer stock if they can't match a customer order).

Allocations and constraints have no meaning once you are at 2000 or beyond.

Excellent explanation. Thank you.

I have been told by my dealer that my Z06 allocation will be accepted tomorrow 10/16 so it appears that we will be making headway this week!

Does anyone know if constrained options are granted 1st come first serve (meaning early Thursday order submission on workbench) or is it a completely random process.

You lucky dog!! Congrats to you.

Constrained options are granted to your dealer along with the allocation. It has nothing to do with order submission timing. If your dealer gets an allocation, and that allocation allows any items on constraint that are in your order then, and only then, can the dealer assign your order to that allocation. Your order could be entered tomorrow or it could have been entered 2 months ago. That makes no difference. Some dealers enter orders as soon as the customer specifies their configuration, some wait until they get an allocation (with matching constraints) and then enter the order. Again, makes no difference.

Okay, trying to understand this... so when I finalize my order tomorrow I will know at that point what options I can pair with my car? Or will it be Tuesday morning before I know what I can or can not get. My dealer stated that we will submit a back up order so I assume it is the latter. I am ordering a non Z07 with CFZ and the painted standard roof being my potential pitfalls.

Thanks for your info/help

Tomorrow your dealer will know exactly what his allocations are and what constrained items he can order. I assume that you are the first person in line for a Z06 at this dealer.

Yes, first of his 2 allocated units for MY 2015. I'm surprised that my order was pulled this early to be honest given his volume. (Sold 15 stingrays last year)

Order with constraints
 

I am in mid-west Florida and had a decent conversation with the dealership today about my order. I had not gotten the full scoop regarding constraints. The dealer has 18 orders, several which are Z06.

My order is a Torch Red Z51 (constraint) 3LT with the visible CF roof (constraint), red calipers with black wheels and red interior. The inventory manager believes that it will be no issue getting the car ordered....at some point! I just have no idea how long this is going to be.

This is my first Corvette and I hope that I actually get the car!!!!

Sitting, and trying to be patient in Florida......

I know what you mean because I'm sitting here in Florida doing the same thing.

This is my first new Corvette, 3LT, Z51, Laguna blue convertible with black interior and MSRC. It sat at 1100 for six weeks before it finally jumped to 3000 today. It's an experience, and I've learned a great deal. Reading some of the threads about dealers giving me a line, etc had me thinking I should just cancel my order, but I'm finding that patience is the most important thing you need. I wasn't about to give up on a Z51 simply because there was a constraint against it. For the amount of money I'm paying, and this being my first new vette, I am determined to get what I want.

That's sorta like a fortune teller saying "someone in your family has died" well, yeah, at some point everyone has someone in their family that has died since no one lives forever :-)

We'll all get a Z06 eventually. I want them to tell me that I'll have one in the spring of 2015 however, not "eventually" that could me 2016, 2017...

Long overdue for "the call" from my dealer. Z51 and chrome wheels have been on constraint but he should get an allocation this month and he has assured me that I'm next on his order list. Only question is will that allocation include my constrained options.

Just wondering. Is there any report for 11/20?

Just posted.

OK, So I order a car yesterday. It is a Z51 which is on constraint, it will have the carbon fiber roof, which is on constraint, as well as chrome wheels and carbon fiber dash, which I don't think either is on constraint. When would you predict the car will be built?

Depends on your dealer's allocations.
Depends on your dealer's allocations.
Depends on your dealer's allocations.
Depends on your dealer's allocations.
Depends on your dealer's allocations.
Shall I say that again?

Not sure if your reply was trying to be helpful or not, but I'm not quite sure how I would know anything about how many allocations my dealer has, except to tell you they are one of the biggest in terms of corvette sales. They have roughly 70 on their lot. The dealers name is Coughlin, if that helps. Ordered the car yesterday and the Event Description states 1100 Preliminary Order Accepted. I'm just trying to learn more about the process. Thanks

You'll be fine with Coughlin. They have plenty of allocations.

Let's hope so...I ordered my Z51 (no other constraints) on 11/4 from them...Still no allocation...Do you think because there are 70 cars on the lot GM is not giving them allocations until they sell down current inventory? I heard somewhere that GM changed how allocations are granted as of 11/1...but what do I know...I am probably being paranoid...just so excited to get my 1st Corvette!

-M

Placed order with local dealer on 10-31-2014 and still no allocation. I am 1st in line at the dealer, and a repeat customer. Hard to understand why GM won't provide the allocations when dealers have deposits and pre-sold orders from customers who want to buy the new C7.

.....and THAT is the million-dollar que$tion!

https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cor...c8a10941f3.jpg

It's as simple as this. Supply and Demand. First, if they limit supply, there will be more demand. Second, they can only produce so many cars on the line, they have to look at how many they can produce and then they use Dealership seniority (how many cars did they order in the past) to determine who will get the largest piece of the pie. That's a version of customer loyalty which I can respect as a business person. Doesn't necessarily mean I like it, but I can respect that.

I would rather them limit the number of orders to the number of cars they can produce as they are doing. Alternatively, they could just accept everyone's orders and but then have them sit in limbo until there's room on the line - which could take months or even into the following model year. The way they are doing it, at least once an order is picked up by GM, they are moving through the system quickly now that production is up and running.

As a consumer, there are options. One can always order from a dealer that has allocations (there have been several on here advertising open allocations for M7) or you can choose to be loyal to the dealership that has worked with you in the past and wait until they get an open allocation.

If you are first in line at your dealership, they CAN tell you if they have any allocations for 2015. They may not be able to tell you when GM will let them use that allocation, but they DO know if they have one. Verify with your dealer to make sure they are getting an allocation, and don't buy a story about them now knowing, they were all told their allocations months ago.

I was told my dealer had an allocation, but they didn't mention they did not have an allocation for two options. They did however show me the constraint percentages, but that didn't explain how often they receive allocations for those items. Just because an option says 50% doesn't mean that 1 out of every 2 allocation will have that option. So make sure you also ask if they have allocations for all your selected options.

The dealer told me they either order for their inventory or they can let the allocation go and another dealer can pick it up. I believe allocations are given out once a week. The issue I have with this is that isn't a sold order. They are building cars to sit on lots when my order doesn't even get picked up.

First American car order for me and it's very frustrating. I'm surprised that Chevy doesn't care if we purchase local or not. Purchasing local builds dealership relationships and strengthens our local economy. Just wondering how bad Detroit would be if nobody purchased locally.

Thanks for your insight....well stated.

I ordered my loaded (but only 1LT) Z51 on 10/23 from Florida's largest Vette dealer. No other constraints, as I wanted glass top. It is still at 1100. A few days before I stopped at the dealership to check out colors, etc. and they had about 30 new Vettes and a couple more truckloads arriving. Salesman said they had been arriving in as little as 4 wks from date of order, if constraints weren't an issue. Did say they had some non-glass topped base cars that had set in the order bank up to 8 wks before being picked up because of top constraints.

Day after my order showed up at 1100, I was told that all of a sudden there seemed to be difficulty in getting allocations. To date they claim they haven't had any Z-51 allocations for several weeks, but that it appears that GM will open up allocations shortly. Their inventory has also diminished quite a lot.

There were comments on this forum from another very large dealer that backed up this comment from my dealer.

From what I can determine,, large dealers with numerous Z06 allocations during the last several weeks, have not gotten many, or in some instances, any other slots.

While I thought about just purchasing a vehicle from the dealer's inventory, and not getting a couple options I wanted, I chose to wait for the color and magnetic ride control, that I really want.

Compromising with a car purchase that most of us will keep for several years, may seem OK at the time, but it won't be long before you will regret your decision.

I am taking "Patience Pills" and going to be thankful for my decision.
I am also planning all my tweaks and mods!!!!!!!:woohoo:

Happy Thanksgiving! :cheers:

Bob...Can you provide the name of the dealer? I would like to look at their existing inventory. Feel free to PM me, if you don't want to name the dealer in this public forum. Thanks in advance for any reply.

Lorenzo Bomnin Chevrolet in Coral Gables (Miami) claims to be the largest in FL. I tried to buy a Z06 from them and got nowhere. I've read nothing good about them so caveat emptor.

Can someone provide the link or post # to the chart of current constraints. I can't seem to locate the latest list. Thanks in advance.

LOL. If were any closer it would bite you. Go to the first post in this thread. That post has links to all of the weekly constraint reports.

Is anyone having a hard time getting the C7 Torch Red with Torch Red body color painted removeable top?

I see the constraint is at 35% which doesn't tell me much, as I am not quite sure how these constraints work and what the number 35% really represents.

Any insight would be helpful.

The 35% means that on a nationwide basis, only 35% of the allocations given to dealers will include the standard roof. The results for an individual dealer may vary substantially from this 35% figure. For example, they may get lucky and have their only allocation allow the painted roof (so, 100% for them). On the other hand, they might be unlucky and get no painted roofs out of 4 allocations (0% for them). It seems that the larger dealers tend to get a slightly higher percentage and smaller dealers tend to get a smaller percentage. The color of your car makes no difference in this case.

You have the patience of a saint!

I just didn't see it......OK? Now I know where it is for the future.

Wasn't referring to you in particular. The same questions keep coming up, over and over. Despite a wealth of reference materials in the stickie section at the top of the forum, lots of people don't do a minimum of research, or even looking down the page for the other two or three threads on the same subject. If I tried to moderate one of these forums, I would have smashed my laptop to pieces by now.

The largest Corvette allocation for 2014 was Stingray Chevrolet in Plant City. I would assume they are the largest for the 15 model year also.
Plant City is about 10 mi east of Tampa and near Lakeland and not far from Orlando, right on I-4. They may not be the biggest overall Chevy dealer in FL, but they currently have 15 Chevy (Holden) SS, so specialize in performance vehicles.

Their Z06 allocation is over 50, but since I wasn't interested in one, I have no idea if they are all sold, or what mix of sticks, autos and option packages they will be getting for customers.

Interestingly, most of their current inventory is 1 & 2 LT, with a nice mix of both base cars and Z51. They were very nice to deal with and are not at all high pressure. I highly recommend them, considering I am a first-time purchaser at their location.

what about build week 12/22/14? dealer called me today and gave me that week.

My understanding is the plant shuts down on Dec 22nd or 23rd, and resumes production on Jan 5th, 2015.

if you look at page 684
 

on the order tracking thread on this forum you will see three people with 12/22 build week=gman67, and hypnotoad, sting15 ray have MCM buyers tour with their build and they are asking what is up with that on the short week. im ok with a build week of 1/12/15 or later( i live in a snow belt) but the dealer called me with 12/22/14 and he knows im in NO HURRY. also you did not post week of 1/5/15. please start digging! thanks

i just looked at page 682 of order tracking thread and CHEVY CUST SVC gave kghia and janicept a build week of 12/22/14 also. as i said im ok with a later build date- dealer called me with that date and i have never called him sence the day i orderd the car for the tracking number.

Assuming no Constraints Report on 11/27 due to Turkey Day. Right?

12/4 Constraints?
The Z06 w/A8 is now being accepted!

Ordered a 1LT in Torch Red with matching body color roof. Order went in yesterday (12/03/2014) placed by the dealer and I have tracking number. I see constraint says 35%.......which doesn't mean much to me.

Question?

What is the likelihood that my order will go through without any problems for the matching Torch Red roof.

I just can't figure out how this contraint deal works. 35% of what?

35% means only 35% of the orders with that option will be accepted.
So, you have about a 1 in 3 chance of the car with that option being accepted for production.

Bob how or where did you get the info regarding A8 orders. I went to my dealership yesterday to see the 6 Z06's that had come in and was told he believed the A8's would be accepted today or next Thursday depending which was on the 2 week cycle. I have been at 1100 since Sept 9th.Hope this is finally the case. Yesterday was the first time I actually have seen a Z06/Z07 and it was magnificent. Truthfully I am glad I ordered a stage l at this time as do not intend to track it and the body works tend to distract. This may change in time, just like the crazy thing I did back in 68 and put a luggage rack on my 66 427 with no intention of ever carrying luggage,but it was a trend. Thanks.

Some dealers have indicated they were able to input orders with the A8. Others have said the system still did not allow the A8.

Confused yet?

Bob you are correct as usual. Target production to begin basically the second week in Jan.:D

The cyber war?? Thanks again for your constraints report as it made my day!

Still doesn't anwser my question:

35% of what?

Torch Red?
Yellow?
Crystal Red?
Laguna Blue?
Night Racing Blue?
Black?
Shark Gray?
etc.

How would you know that only 1 of 3 Torch Red orders with matching roof body color would be accepted?

The term 35% could cover only 1 or perhaps 2 colors.

I think these constraints need to be much more specific in nature for the consumer to understand.

It means that of all coupes that are allocated across the country, 35% of them can be ordered with the standard painted roof (regardless of color). When a dealer gets an allocation for a coupe, they're told whether or not the car can be ordered with a painted roof panel.

BTW, GM isn't interested in making this stuff easy for consumers to understand; the info's intended audience is dealers.

My dealer, who only has 1 allocation and is mine, called me this morning and said he got his allocation and was able to order my A8 Z06 today which he originally put into the system 9/1/14

Constraints for 12/11?

Just posted.

Thanks for getting that up so quick. No real surprises there. Talked to my dealer last night who told me he hopes to get 3 or 4 allocations tomorrow (Friday) and expects at least one to be a Z51 which he would assign to my order. I guess we'll see soon enough.

He says his dealership (he's an owner) has the fastest turnover of Corvettes of any in the Region. Once he gets one, it's gone! I believe him.

Target Production Week of January 26, 2015 for non-Z06.
Target Production week of January 19, 2015 for Z06.

Can you provide a quick synopsis what these constraint reports mean? I see features and percentages. Don't know why they mean.

Thank you.

The % indicates the nationwide % of orders for this cycle that will be allowed to have the given option. So, for example the standard roof at 40% means that on a nationwide basis, only 40% of the allocations given to dealers will include the standard roof. The results for an individual dealer may vary substantially from this 40% figure. For example, they may get lucky and have their only allocation allow the painted roof (so, 100% for them). On the other hand, they might be unlucky and get no painted roofs out of 4 allocations (0% for them). It seems that the larger dealers tend to get a slightly higher percentage and smaller dealers tend to get a smaller percentage.

When dealers are given their allocations, they know exactly which allocations allow which constraint items.

Zymurgy

Do you know if M5U 8 speed auto transmission, which is on constraint at 75%, is used in both the Stingray and the Z06. I was informed that the Z06 uses a different A8.

All I can tell you is that both the Stingray and the Z06 use the same RPO - M5U.

I would say that is the same transmission. Maybe someone on the forum might know for sure.

Seems odd that a manufacturer would hold up sales, delivery, and profit because they don't have enough painted roofs......that would not seem an onerous job, just paint more roofs? What am I missing?

They would have to have those roofs to paint. Other than the laxon roof, all roofs are carbon fiber. Paint or exposed. Supplier just hasn't been able to keep up.

Hokey dokey got it.......hopefully the can put some pressure on their suppilers.

Latest constraint report posted

Is it reasonable to think that if a dealer takes an order, and they are being on the up and up, that they know a particular order, for them, is subject to constraint? For example, does a dealer know, when they take an order which includes a painted roof, that they have an allocation which includes a painted roof?

When in the process, if at all, does a dealer know that part of a particular order cannot be filled?

Thanks,

Ken

Ok, here's a little bit of a primer on Corvette ordering 101. First of all, realize that any dealer authorized to deal in vettes (there are some training and equipment requirements, so not all Chevy dealers are authorized,) can place an order in the system at any time for any of the four vette models, with any orderable options. This gets a six character order number and an order status of 1100, order entered by dealer. This means nothing beyond the order has been correctly typed into the computer.

Second, every two weeks or so, GM has a consensus cycle. This is where GM tells each dealer what cars they can order and what options are allowed. It is accompanied by a constraint report which shows any options with limited ordering, expressed as a percentage of total production. So if the CFA standard roof is constrained at 40%, then no more than 40 of every 100 coupes produced can have that roof option. The rest must be either the visible Carbon Fiber roof, which is also usually constrained, or the CC3 transparent roof. The production slots the dealers get are called allocations, and will come with specific numbers on constrained options. For example, "3 coupes, 2 may have CFA painted roof, none may have C2Z Carbon Fiber roof. Only 1 may have Z51 package. 1 Z06, either coupe or convertible, may not have Z07 package."

How many allocations your dealer gets will depend on his yearly expected allocation, as well as his unsold inventory of vettes. If it's less than 20 cars for the year, they may not get an allocation during every consensus, much less one with constrained options. If it's only one car, and the option is constrained at less than 50%, than there is a less than even chance he can order that option on the car. He won't know until the Thursday that the cycle starts. Everything gets finalized over the weekend, and by Tuesday afternoon, all the orders matched to allocations move to Status 2000, "Order accepted by GM." If your order has options he can't order, you can either change your order (if the dealer gives you that option,) wait for the next cycle, or go elsewhere. The dealer can go down his waiting list to find an order that does match the constraints, order for dealer stock, or pass on the allocation.

Hope this gives you a little insight.

Thanks fdxpilot. Great summary.

Best summary I've heard!:thumbs: 3300 with a TPW of 1/19 and counting!

Very good explanation. When does the next cycle start?

Just my guess, but Jan 8. They start on Thursdays, but I don't think they will have one on New Year's Day.

Yep... should be the 8th and 22nd. Hopefully macmulkin can put my order in on one of those dates. They received my deposit on the 22nd :willy:

I am in the same boat. My deposit is with MacMulkin and I am hoping the order goes through Thursday (fingers crossed). Good luck!

Joe

Same here...found out yesterday..my DSOM 2LT Z51 has same build week.
Hope there's no changes or delays.:D

Thanks. On my 3rd new vette in as many years, and have gotten a chance to see the system at work (or not working, as the case may be.) I'm a week behind you with my Z. Good luck to all the eager new owners!

I really appreciate the angst of waiting...I'm in the same boat, but just interested in knowing how many of you guys were on the HD "waiting lists" during the 90s?

I had a '91, '93, '97 and '99 HD in the day...hype and hyperbole and all, but somehow it evolved...AND...even bought them at the unheard discount...

When a company gets itself into the "we're special" mode, the sales are...well...special.

Ken

Finally got my allocation this am. Has anyone seen the constraints??

Hopefully this month brother!

If not this one, I'm pretty certain we'll make the next one. If anything it would be a month. Then we're looking at march time....

It looks like I did not make the cut today if today was a Z06 day. But it looks like I should be in on the next one. Let me know how you make out. Good luck!

Yes - has anyone see the constraints yet? my dealer said I got the Z06 allocation but is waiting will constraints come out next week--

Did the Bi-Weekly Thursday GM order entry cycle start today or is it next Thursday, the 15th? I signed the order paperwork for a Z51 Laguna Blue Vert on 12/31 and salesman had said Thursday the 8th was their order day but he was off today so I can't confirm. Thanks!

I just spoke to my dealer today and he stated their allocations were coming up next Thursday, not today. (I had thought they were every week, not bi-weekly)? And looking at the first post, it appears they've been weekly in the past. They are just behind as the last 2 Thursday's have been holidays.

My dealer emailed me his allocations yesterday which included a Z06 just waiting to hear if the order is accepted. I don't know what the current constraints are.
