Complete the module reading What’s Your Excuse for Not Using JIT? and Just-in-Time Production Controlled by Kanban. Research peer-reviewed journals through the SNHU Shapiro Library that discuss the concept of just-in-time manufacturing (aka JIT or pull system).

·         Advantages over batch manufacturing (push system)
