• Producing and procuring the right items at the right time,

HISTORY OF JIT
• JIT's origins can possibly traced back to Japan, when the
country aimed to improve its industrial base by achieving
full employment and a positive trade balance after the
Second World War.

ELEMENTS OF JIT
1. JUST-IN-TIME MANUFACTURING
is an element of JIT that places the most emphasis on the
production system, enabling high production of high-quality,
low-cost products while precisely satisfying customer
expectations
ACHIEVED BY FOCUSING ON THESE ELEMENTS
▪︎Pull production system & Kanban
▪︎Small lots sizes & quick setups
▪︎Flexible resources
ELEMENTS OF JIT
THE PULL SYSTEM
Pull products into production only as they are needed or
requested. Preventing an over production of goods
Number of kanbans
required
N = number of kabans or containers
D = demand rate at a using working station
N= DT + S T = the time it takes to receive an order
from the previous workstation (lead time)
C S = safety stock
C = size of container
KANBAN
N = number of kabans or containers
N= DT + S D = demand rate at a using working station
T = the time it takes to receive an order (lead time)
C S = safety stock
C = size of container
An aspirin manufacturer has converted to JIT manufacturing using kanban
containers. They must determine the number of containers at the bottle
filling operation which fills at a rate of 200 per hour. Each container holds
25 bottles, it takes 30 minutes to receive more bottles, safety stock is 10%
of demand during lead time
SOLUTIO N=(200)(.5) + 10
N: D = 200 bottles per hour 25
T = 30 mins = .5 hr
SDT= .10 (200) (.5) =10 N= 4.4 kanban
bottles
C = 25 bottles per container containers

ELEMENTS OF JIT
SMALL-LOT SIZE • Reduce inventory
Producing items in smaller • Flexibility
quantities rather that large • Quality Improvement
batches •Faster feedback
QUICK SETUPS
Reducing the time required to
switch from producing one
product to another
ELEMENTS OF JIT
FLEXIBLE RESOURCES
Ability of a workforce, equipment, and processes to adapt
quickly to changing production requirements.
1. FLEXIBLE WORKFORCE
Employees are trained to perform multiple tasks or operate
different types of equipment
2. FLEXIBLE EQUIPMENT
Machine and tools that can be easily adjusted to handle
different tasks or products.
ELEMENTS OF JIT
2. TOTAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT
is an approach that emphasizes quality in every aspect of an
organization's operations, from design to delivery. It is often
integrated with JIT to ensure that products are made right at
the first time, reducing waste and rework.
1. Continous improvement
2. Employee involvement
3. Customer focus
ELEMENTS OF JIT
3. RESPECT FOR PEOPLE
is an element of JIT that considers human resources as an
essential part of the JIT philosophy.
LEAN
SYSTEM
lean system
• A lean operation is a flexible system of operation that uses
considerably fewer resources (i.e., activities, people,
inventory, and floor space) than a traditional system.
Moreover, lean systems tend to achieve greater
productivity, lower costs, shorter cycle times, and higher
quality than nonlean systems.
SUPPORTING GOALS:
1.Eliminate disruptions
2.Make the system flexible
3.Eliminate waste, especially excess inventory
8 wastes in the lean
sytem
• Excess Inventory • Processing waste
• Overproduction • Inefficient work
• Waiting time methods
• Unnecessary • Product defects
transporting • Underused people
building blocks of a
lean system
1.Product design.
2.Process design.
3.Personnel/organizational elements.
4.Manufacturing planning and control.
Personnel and
Organizational Elements
1.Workers as assets.
2.Cross-trained workers.
3.Continuous improvement.
4.Cost accounting.
5.Leadership/project management.
Manufacturing Planning and
Control
1.Level loading.
2.Pull systems.
3.Visual systems.
4.Limited work-in-process (WIP).
5.Close vendor relationships.
6.Reduced transaction processing.
7.Preventive maintenance and housekeeping.
