Quality and Supply Management Supply Chain and Inventory Management Management and Optimization Techniques

Abstract

Western manufacturing firms have shown considerable interest in the just‐in‐time (JIT) philosophy in recent years. The most critical issue facing firms in the West is that of JIT implementation. The primary considerations for JIT implementation and the fundamental issues affecting JIT programmes are discussed in detail. It is concluded that in implementing a JIT programme, changes in the attitudes of both the management and the workforce are necessary together with a clear understanding of the implications resulting from the move to a JIT approach.
