The Benefits of Just-in-Time Deliveries

As our society has become more spread out, it’s paramount for business to stay agile. It is now more important than ever to adapt to changing market conditions. Small batches and limited edition items have started replacing the large-scale mass production of products. This is where implementing a new inventory management system can help your company save money. Here are the benefits of just-in-time deliveries.

Increased Production Control

By controlling how much is produced at a time, your business can focus on increasing efficiency. This also allows for changes to be made to the product easily. On the flip side, just-in-time (JIT) deliveries allow you to quickly scale up your operation if there’s a surge in demand. Increasing your supervision of production can help control the time spent wasted waiting for production materials to arrive.

Prevents Waste

Unwanted products and damaged items are the nightmare fuel of producers everywhere. Because of the smaller scale of production, employees can focus on product quality over quantity. Smaller batches can also help soften the blow if one of your products suddenly becomes obsolete.

Preventing waste also applies to the materials that you use. With JIT inventory management, you order your supplies when you need them, cutting down on the possibility of materials going bad before they can be used.

Reduce Storage

Warehouse space is expensive, especially if a product is sitting there collecting dust. JIT deliveries can cut back on this by not producing or sending products until necessary. These reduced storage requirements can save in shipping costs by saving space on your trucks as well.

With all the benefits of just-in-time deliveries, it is important to pick a logistics company that can help your business grow. Diversified Transportation Services offers our expedited freight services that’ll help keep your company nimble and responsive.
