Just-In-Time Production (JIT)

Just-In-Time Production (JIT) is a manufacturing strategy that aims to reduce waste by producing only what is needed, when it is needed, and in the amount required. This approach minimizes excess inventory costs and increases efficiency by aligning production schedules closely with customer demand. In the context of Lean Operations, JIT encourages continuous improvement and streamlined processes, helping organizations respond quickly to changes while delivering high-quality products. By focusing on the right resources at the right time, JIT helps companies operate more effectively and remain competitive.
