Pull replaces push Sample Clauses

Pull replaces push. In a general MRP (material research planning) strategy, one is operating with a push system. This means that the products are produced with respect to the forecasts. In a Lean strategy they are operating with a pull system. In this way the production starts as soon as an order is received from a higher level. The product is then pulled through the system. This is the same strategy that they use in JIT (just in time) (Xxxxxxxx, 2007). See Figure 24. Figure 24 Pull/Push system (xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx 2011) Benefits of pull systems:  Efficiency; with less average WIP (work in process) the pull system reaches the same throughput as a push system. Then the cycle time is shorter with a pull system.  Productivity; there is more time spent on adding value to the process because of less WIP. This is because there is less encumbrances that interfere with the process.  Ease of control; the pull system creates a much more manageable process. This is because it places emphasis on putting easily controllable WIP levels.  Quality improvement; the low WIP system constitute a higher sensitivity to quality. By improving feedback and learning curves it facilitates. (Xxxxxx, 2010) There is also another aspect none of the earlier presented strategies have discussed. This is the physical work conditions in the work area, which in our case is the warehouse. This next theoretical contribution will help us to deal with this issue.
