Quizplus · Accepted Answer

JIT/lean systems are designed to reduce waste related to excess inventory, underutilization of employee knowledge and skills, unnecessary transportation/movement of goods, scrap and rework. Product designs with little potential for recycling are not directly related to the JIT/lean system and therefore are not considered a type of waste to be reduced through these systems.
