Summary: This workbook for manufacturing supply chain management (SCM) professionals illustrates how to apply kanban replenishment systems and improve material flow. Those who are now ready to make the conversion from materials requirements planning (MRP) push techniques to kanban pull techniques must read this book! In Kanban for the Supply Chain: Fundamental Practices for Manufacturing Management., Stephen Cimorelli provides SCM teams with a roadmap for installing fundamental kanban concepts - the method is immediately actionable thereby increasing manufacturing productivity and profitability. Through an iterative process of planning, adjusting, and executing, kanban pull techniques keep inventory levels synchronized with demand, and the supply chain synchronized with actual production. Highlights include: Kanban and Supply Chain Management foundational concepts and definitions. Examples based on actual implementation of kanban in a variety of manufacturing environments. A graphical model of material replenishment patterns, which is at the heart of kanban. Key principles for sustaining the kanban system and improving its effectiveness through level-loading. A CD containing training materials for instructors
