About this Presentation
This presentation describes a case of an implementation of a lead time management system in a company manufacturing/assembling machining-center. The production lead time of each product is responsive to the demand of the sales department. The drum buffer rope (DBR) production control system was implemented by reprogramming the existing ERP and APS systems. The transportation lead time is controlled by the location of inventory warehouses. The new approach is now anticipated to please both the sales and production departments.
