Close relationships are important for JIT as it involves frequent communication and coordination between the supplier and the buyer. Trust is also critical as JIT relies on timely delivery of high-quality materials from the supplier. Skepticism may lead to delays or lower quality products, which could disrupt the JIT system. Distant relationships may make communication and coordination difficult, which could also disrupt the JIT system.
