2.  JIT can be defined as an integrated set of activities designed to achieve high-volume production using minimal inventories (raw materials, work in process, and finished goods).  JIT also involves the elimination of waste in production effort.  JIT also involves the timing of production resources (e.g., parts arrive at the next workstation “just in time”). 2

3.  Elimination of waste  Efforts concentrated on shop floor  Respect for people  Quality improvement focus 3

16. 16 Work in process queues (banks) Change orders Engineering design redundancies Vendor delinquencies Scrap Design backlogs Machine downtime Decision backlogs Inspection backlogs Paperwork backlog Example: By identifying defective items from a vendor early in the production process the downstream work is saved. Example: By identifying defective work by employees upstream, the downstream work is saved.

18.  Setting up a kanban system requires determining the number of kanbans (or containers) needed.  Each container represents the minimum production lot size.  An accurate estimate of the lead time required to produce a container is key to determining how many kanbans are required. 18

19. 19 k = Number of kanban card sets (a set is a card) d = Average number of units demanded over some time period L = lead time to replenish an order (same units of time as demand) S = Safety stock expressed as a percentage of demand during lead time C = Container size

20.  A switch assembly is assembled in batches of 4 units from an “upstream” assembly area and delivered in a special container to a “downstream” control-panel assembly operation.  The control-panel assembly area requires 5 switch assemblies per hour.  The switch assembly area can produce a container of switch assemblies in 2 hours.  Safety stock has been set at 10% of needed inventory. 20
