Just in time
Just in case stock control is costly. To reduce spending and improve competitiveness, a business can switch to an alternative method of stock control called just in time. With just in time, a business holds no stock and instead relies upon deliveries of raw materials and components to arrive exactly when they are needed. Instead of occasional large deliveries to a warehouse, components arrive just when they are needed and are taken straight to the factory floor.
The benefits of reduced warehouse costs must be balanced against the cost of more frequent deliveries and lost purchasing economies of scale from bulk buying discounts.
This kept me awake last night. The little sleep I had:cool:
I have a massive announcement to make. :T
No longer am I going to stockpile Mullers. I normally have dozens in the fridge and have to waste endless hours and days even, moving them around to put the new stock at the back. From today I am only going to buy 10 and when they run out I will buy another 10.
Why?
Because they are ALWAYS glitching:)To do is to be. Rousseau
To be is to do. Sartre
