Description
This guide explains the basic ideas behind the Japanese-style "Just in Time" techniques with regard to efficient manufacturing, distribution and purchasing and outlines what steps to take to implement them successfully. Speed and efficiency result not just in cost reductions but in a real competitive edge. Businesses are cutting back on stockholdings and more of their customers are demanding fast and reliable deliveries of higher quality goods. The book is aimed at junior to middle managers. The author is a management consultant with many years' experience and has written on the subject of JIT for "Management Today ", "The Independent on Sunday" and "The Financial Times".
