You are working in company X and company Y is your

customer. Company Y trusts on your supplies a lot. You have
to supply the products by 10th of this month. But on 8th you
come to know that there is a shortage of a part which is used
to make the product to be supplied. You cannot consult to you
Senior Manager because he does not give importance to
these small issues and you have to solve it on your own.
There are three choices

1. Regrind the used parts and use them again. It can have
some chances of failure
2. Use the parts which are old and lying in the company.
This will guarantee minimal safety.
