JIT Production and Supply Chain Management
Keywords:
supply chain, Just in Time (JIT), production planningAbstract
The Just In Time (JIT) manufacturing system is examined in this study as a crucial instrument for boosting production process efficiency and improving supply chain performance. Furthermore, the function of Just-In-Time (JIT) and optimal implementation within the supply chain are examined. From then on, this approach is widely used, particularly in industrialised nations where it has been shown to yield production that is both prolific and of a high calibre. To ascertain additional aspects of this method's acceptability, more investigation is necessary. A comparison of Just-in-time (JIT) and non-JIT planning approaches in the areas of production/demand, resource discovery/shipping, and transportation/logistics has been conducted in order to examine the benefits of this system. The article's main topics include improving process flexibility, JIT production systems, and identifying key resources to enable JIT.
