A study on operational issues faced by manufacturing firms implementing Traditional Kanban System (TKS)

Just-In-Time (JIT) manufacturing philosophy is a systems that were originally designed for deterministic production environments such as constant processing times and smooth and stable demand. However, once implemented, JIT is fraught with numerous types of uncertainties, including variations in pro...
