Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The purpose of using Kanban is to ensure that the expected demand during lead time plus safety stock requirements are met efficiently. Therefore, the number of Kanbans should be determined in a way that ensures these requirements are met without causing overproduction or waste. Option B and C are not appropriate as they do not consider the importance of safety stock. Option D is irrelevant as ISO specifications do not determine the number of Kanbans required.
