I think reducing WIP makes sense if you can pull directly from the first station, but it looks like the testing procedure is either longer than takt time, or finding too many bad pieces, which is probably why they need to keep extra WIP. Not ideal, but sometimes inventory in the right place will help reduce fluctuations and smooth the work flow. <br />I'm not familiar with the process, just trying to glean info from what I see in the video.Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09770921422994624110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6267539682365042738.post-32337426689296145812014-03-16T12:45:53.114-04:002014-03-16T12:45:53.114-04:00Top-rated blog.

Would it be better to pull directly from the first station, once finished goods are pulled by customer from FGI? thanks a lot!~ Paula Jones iso 13485http://majakel.co.uknoreply@blogger.com
