Just-In-Time Manufacturing

Just-In-Time (JIT) Manufacturing is a production strategy aimed at reducing waste and increasing efficiency. In JIT, materials and products are delivered only as they are needed in the manufacturing process, rather than being stockpiled in advance. This approach minimizes inventory costs and helps companies respond quickly to customer demands. By synchronizing production with demand, JIT encourages lean operations, which can lead to better quality, reduced lead times, and lower overall costs. It requires precise planning and coordination between suppliers and manufacturers to be effective.
