JIT AND ITS HISTORY :
Just-In-Time(JIT) manufacturing or production is the method of producing the products which are in demand to the customer needs and only the sufficient amount of it. Excess to the required produced is considered as a waste according to the JIT principles. Just in time was initially executed by Toyota in the mid 90 's due to several reasons. In the late 90 's the technique has spread to western nations mainly adopted by the manufacturing companies. OBJECTIVES:
The main aim of JIT manufacturing is to reduce the cycle time, process time and the response time between the supplier and the retailer. The method …show more content…
Every event is dependent on other. If a gap is created in the system the gap is filled by passing the message or informing the higher level management about the gap created. By following this procedure there will not be any over production problem or lack of inventory space. 'KANBAN ' SYSTEM
Kanban is a Japanese word which means signboard. The most effective method to grasp information for the human brain is through visual displays. Pictorial representation, pictures or any other visual displays make it a long lasting effect. Kanban uses this principle for improving the efficiency of the production system.
For every system there are few rules and regulations to get the maximum output. The rules for this system are:
Avoid shipment of damaged goods. Not only goods but also any service provided to customer must not be in defective order.
Anticipate what customer needs and how much he needs. That way there won 't be delay in delivering it to the consumer.
Extension to the above rule once the customer orders for certain quantity and delivered to him/her the same amount must be manufactured and placed in the …show more content…
Predict the average demand of the people and stock it.
For the better results and high efficiency the foundation of the processes must be strong and must be improved constantly.
SUCCESSFUL IMPLEMENTATIONS OF JIT AND KANBAN IN OTHER INDUSTRIES
Healthcare Storage Solutions Corp has implemented Kanban technique in order to maintain their stock or inventory in a balanced manner. They stock their high demand products into large inventory storage space and then divide the products based on the need and placed. Dell realized that transportation of products from the warehouse to retailer is waste of time and reduces the efficiency of the system. Once the consumer requests for a product the item will be delivered and also immediately replacing the item. Toyota of-course has introduced this technique to the world and has been successful till now. Japanese users require products of different types. Hence they don’t need mass production as their technique. Harley Davidson is one of the fancy bike manufacturer. It does not produce the bikes in mass production manufacturing method. Applying the just in time procedure, the product begins only if there is an order
