JIS
Just-In-Sequence
Just-In-Sequence (JIS) adds delivering materials in the sequence of consumption to the Just-In-Time (JIT) practice. Typically applied to assembly line production processes, JIS requires the Supplier to deliver the materials in the sequence of the production schedule of the Manufacturer. The following elements are typically required to implement Just-In-Sequence:
- Manufacturer or Buyer provides the schedule to the Supplier - see: S202 and DELJIT
- Supplier schedules vehicles to schedule - see: D204
- Supplier provides vehicle schedule to Manufacturer or Buyer - see: ASN
- Supplier picks and loads vehicle to schedule (Last In, First Out) - see: D207, D208 and D209
- Manufacturer or Buyer receives and unloads vehicle to schedule - see: S203, S204 and S207
The practice reduces the risk of picking errors and/or time spent on searching for the right materials by material handlers or assembly workers and is implemented to reduce inventory, storage and handling costs.
