WHAT TYPE OF PROGRAM IS BEST FOR YOU?
Picking the right solution is key to your success. Adapting the right blend of inventory systems depends upon the type of customer demand. For example, in a repetitive environment that has a consistent monthly build rate, established production line and little change in Bill of Material, a Just in Time (JIT), Kanban, or Reusable Packaging Kitting solution can be outstanding tools to empower and streamline your business. However, if your demand mirrors a Job Shop scenario that is batch driven with requirements as needed, with frequent Bill of Material changes and general variability, better solutions could include One Time Use Packaging. Reach out to one of our Aero-Glen consultants who will spend the time to find the best solution for you, reviewing your needs, value stream mapping your process, putting together a coordinated implementation plan, and executing the project driving the desired results.
