Precede

Hey,
I have a question- how do you put the word precede in a sentence.
For example- you want to say that you need something urgently from your supplier- how do you say it?
Is the following sentece correct? "I would like you to precede with my order", once there's giving you a bad lead time (more suitable for english buisness forum?

I would appreciate you answering my question.
Thanks,
Galia

What I mean is that I have ordered something, but it's not done yet, due to long lead time.
So I'm asking that this item will be ready earlier that the expected lead time.
Is it more clear?
So, how d I put it?
