Good morning / afternoon list!

We need to establish updated lead times for parts sold to our customers. 
The business is proposing using the technique of blowing up the BOMs and 
based on the component leadtimes, use the greater of any of the resulting 
values and apply it to the finished goods' lead time values.

I have also thought about using current MRP results to get this because 
the bill is already exploded; however, this will only be valid for 
finished goods that have demand: all others will not be analyzed then.

So I would like to know if you have done something like that and if so, 
can you share your thoughts and suggestions on this?

I appreciate your help on this one, as always.

Very best regards,
