Related: partnerships almost never work and especially harmful for moving fast.

1. If you're a fast-moving startup, most if not all companies will move slower than you. Waiting on another company to hold up their end of the deadline is de-motivating for your team. 

2. Coordinating a "big bang" launch takes a lot of work and usually doesn't make a huge impact.

Instead, a better way to do partnerships:

1. Tell the other party what your plans are and the deadline for being included. Be clear that you will ship whether ready or not.

2. If they miss the deadline but finish a few days / week later, just announce as a follow on.
