Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

JIT production systems aim to eliminate excess inventory, including goods in process. This means that the number of goods in process is reduced to practically nothing. While JIT may lead to a reduction in workers needed on the line and shifts necessary at the plant, it does not necessarily eliminate them completely. Similarly, JIT aims to minimize the number of separate operations on the assembly line, but it may not reduce them to nothing.
