【管理辞典】及时生产 / Just in time

「释义」

及时生产是一种生产管理的方法论，源自于丰田生产方式。通过减少生产过程中的库存和相关的顺带成本，改善商业投资回报的管理战略。

为了满足及时生产的目标，生产流程依赖标记符号，或称看板管理。看板的作用是告诉工人，什么时候该进行下一个流程。如果运用得当，JIT可以帮助企业持续改进生产流程，提高生产性企业的投资回报率、质量、效率、员工参与度，以及产品流动速度。

「应用场景」

他们这样写道，JIT代表着回归基本；它意味着减少库存、延误、缺陷和成本。正是在这种看似平凡的效率的基础上，日本公司在全球市场上取得了成功。JIT的关键是简单；它不需要昂贵的新设备或复杂的公式。他们所描绘的是一个新的制造愿景--比管理者所知道的更纯粹的效率。

JIT, so they wrote, represented a return to basics; it meant reducing inventories, delays, defects, and costs. It was precisely on this foundation of seemingly mundane efficiencies that Japanese companies had built their successes in global markets. The key to JIT was simplicity; it did not require expensive new equipment or complex formulas. The picture they painted was a new vision of manufacturing—a purer efficiency than managers had ever known.
