Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Decreasing cycle time requires smooth-running processes to effectively reduce the time it takes to produce a product or provide a service. If processes are not optimized or flawed, decreasing cycle time could lead to lower product quality or reduced flexibility in the production process. However, it can improve reactions to customer requests by allowing for faster turnaround times.
