Just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing

Just-In-Time (JIT) Manufacturing is a production strategy aimed at reducing waste and improving efficiency. Instead of producing large quantities of goods and storing them, JIT focuses on creating products only as needed. This approach ensures that materials arrive just in time for production and products are made only when there is a demand, minimizing inventory costs. By streamlining operations and reducing excess, companies can respond quickly to customer needs, lower storage expenses, and improve overall productivity. JIT originated in Japan and is widely used in manufacturing industries around the world.
