- We had six different lengths of the same type of linear light fittings with infill blanks. Some of the infill blanks had a Presence Detector, Fire Detector, or Emergency light, resulting in many variations of the same fittings. For example, some had emergency lighting with PIR, some had neither, and some had both EMG and PIR. Additionally, some had Smoke Detectors, and the cable entry location was critical.
- To manage the increased variety of subtypes, we labelled the fittings A1_1, A1_2, A1_3, and so on. Unfortunately, this caused many human errors when packing the fittings in the factory. Furthermore, the operatives on site often forgot the exact subtype they needed after checking the drawing and before finding the appropriate pallet of fittings, leading to a lot of wasted time.

- Keep Lighting naming as simple as possible, for example, use A1, A2, A3 instead of A1_1, A1_2, A1_3
