Kanban
Many companies have introduced expensive MRP II computer systems, which are often centrally planned, involving large amounts of paperwork and data administration. Kanban is a visual system of controlling production without the need for complex computer systems. It relies on a Kanban card to pull product through the operation to meet customer demand. The introduction of Kanban systems will often both improve customer service and reduce inventory levels.
