This book presents an alternate approach to supply chain issues. The authors argue that the traditional materials planning environment, typically embodied by an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, is an ineffective support system for a company that wants to adopt Lean practices. Presenting a materials planning and control chart approach using only Lean tools, the text focuses on the materials management aspects of Lean, such as leveling work within the value stream and the concept of Every Part Every Interval. It combines independent demand characteristics with manufacturing strategy.
