A lot of times, admissible parts in our design are very specific - to the point that [[COTS]] sourcing offers challenges. We intend to transform COTS into flexible-COTS via creating a global infrastrucutre for on-demand, flexible, user-participatory, digital production - in the long term. In the short term, we go about in-house part production with digital means. In the immediate term - we specify brands down to a clickable buy online link - at great peril. The challenge is - very specific parts run the risk of being out of stock - this is a challenge of Point Specifications of parts versus typical specification of parts where most substitutes will do. This is  not to say that for many parts, many substitutes won&amp;#039;t do.  The Point Specifications still apply - and that becomes a challenge for hiring designers, who may  not have the [[CAD-BOM-Build]] experience to be effective in making Point Specifications. This is part of the reason why we need to grow talent from inside.
