How to make Just-ln-Time work for Uou... fomplete distribution sErvires - rustomized to gour needs
Just-ln-Time olfers tremendous advantages but is not free. Invariably there are increased transportation and material costs, and hidden liabilities in having to use alternative vendors that seem to fit your J-l-T needs, even though you may prefer the product of another.
The answer is a "buffer," a distribution service that can receive material via any mode, store it if necessary and deliver it on a Just-ln-Time basis. Transportation costs can be held down: inequities in production vs. demand moderated...on-hand plant inventories minimized...and relalionships with vendors continued, and often expanded.
lf you decide that J-l-T is what you want. .. that's your business.
lf you need help to make it happen... that's our business.
