stability and standardization to bring about improved safety‚ quality‚ delivery performance and cost control. Why a basis for Lean? Lean Manufacturing is a methodology derived from the Toyota Production System (TPS) which originated in post World War II Japan. It came about when Kiichiro Toyoda and Taiichi Ohno amongst others explored means of making a high variety of quality cars at minimal cost‚ given the lack of capital expenditure available at the time. The fundamental principle of TPS is

Stock Rationing in a Make-to-Stock Production System with Two Demand Classes and Service Level Constraint [pic] This paper studies the stock rationing problem of a single-item make-to-stock production system with two demand classes and lost sale. There are service level requirements for both demand classes. Demands follow Poisson distributions‚ and production time is exponentially distributed. We derive the condition of the existence of a feasible rationing policy of the problem first. Then the
