spills

English to Portuguese Marketing Marketing
Currently, in our major markets, order intake is at a historical high. With this growth, we see ‘the wave’ of volumes coming through in 2018; this means added pressure to maintain our high levels of operational performance and properly manage our risk in order to avoid spills at all costs. As we accelerate the number of launches, we cannot allow Quality to be jeopardized.

Open communication and collaboration with the XXX mindset is critical. Common goals and ways of working enable XXX to support both expected and unexpected market fluctuations, thus allowing us to have the flexibility to adapt quickly to market changes.

baixas


spill = fall:
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/spill

Logo antes fala de altos níveis de desempenho, então creio que a ideia é
evitar baixas (de desempenho) a todo custo

Fica a sugestão!

agree Paulinho Fonseca : O texto reporta inicialmente '...intake is at a historical high...'. O líder direciona sua fala para que todos trabalhem com o intuito de não haver 'baixas', assim entendo.

Também entendi da mesma forma: "spill" está sendo usado em oposição a "growth" e a "high levels of operational performance". Obrigado, Paulinho!

falhas / erros

If this was a product we could probably guess this would be in reference to a fluid spilling.

Since we are talking about marketing, they must be using "spill" in the same sense as "mistake". "We can't afford any mistakes." "We need to avoid spilling the beans." They probably chose that in reference to 'the waves' mentioned earlier.

Another, unlikely, interpretation may be "leaks" (as in leak of information) or "spread".
