Learn methods that can be utilized in both the short and long term to reduce lead times.
All companies have the need to reduce supplier’s lead times on occasion. In order to do this effectively the components of lead time must be understood. The product’s manufacturing environment also affects the extent lead times can be reduced. Job shops offer the best opportunity to reduce lead times, while products manufactured in a process environment offer the least. There are methods that can be utilized in both the short and long term to reduce lead times. Purchase order language addressing delivery and lead time can be employed to maximize the buyer’s leverage when dealing with late deliveries or long lead times.
Learning Objectives
- You will be able to define lead time components.
- You will be able to explain the role the manufacturing environment plays in lead time and your ability to influence delivery.
- You will be able to describe the importance of purchase order language relating to delivery.
- You will be able to identify methods of reducing lead times.
