Swedish term
återanskaffningstid
Swedish to English
Tech/Engineering
Transport / Transportation / Shipping
the term appears in a logistic agreement in connection with delivery planning and holding a buffer stock and probably indicates the period necessary for getting a desired product from the supplier.
Could this be 'delivery time' simply? or 'run-out time'?

lead time
I think this is the more usual, perhaps slightly colloquial term. Can also say "fulfilment lead time" etc. See ref for good example of usage.

replenishment interval/replenishment time
The time it takes to replenish the stock of sth.
A lot more googles on time, but the hits on interval are still highly relevant (I think...) in your case.

: hmmm...replenishment is more "påfyllnad", which isn't really the same thing. It does depend on the context though.

In many contexts the two are indeed near-perfect synonyms: "återanskaffning av varor"="påfyllning av varor"

replacement time
Based on FAR's definition of återanskaffning. (But yes, more context would be good).

"These nine standard configurations eliminate the requirement for stocking hundreds of unique MFC part numbers and therefore reduce inventory carrying costs. Furthermore, MultiFlo® technology reduces average replacement time from more than four hours to minutes for conventional MFCs, plus there are no reconfiguration costs associated with live gas re-calibration.

I think - from looking at these and other info - that replacement time is the time from placing an order to receiving a part. Would that make sense in your context?
