Just in Time (JIT) vs MRP vs EOQ

In a JIT environment with MRP the work order is usually replaced with a repetitive schedule whose planned quantity for a given period is the sum of the maximum kanban quantities possible in that period. Actual production reported will be driven by the kanban signals. In a JIT environment the need for greater inventory accuracy should be evident. The less inventory we have on hand the more important it is that it be correct. The goal of continuous improvement in inventory accuracy becomes one of the JIT improvement goals. JIT and MRP work just fine together EOQ does not often work well with either There are JIT concepts that work with either Only have on hand what you use High visibility and simplicity In storage and process Cross-trained work teams Folks who know what they are doing and what the parts are Continuous improvement Goals for doing things better
