Abstract

The increasing intensity of competition in global markets in the present time is the major challenge that organizations are facing, especially the manufacturing ones. To remain at the competitive edge, the companies need to be continuously striving for innovative and effective material management techniques. Just In Time (JIT) is one of such material management techniques that increases the productivity of the enterprise by elimination of all kind of wastes through continuous improvement. This paper deals with the identification and ranking of performance indicators based on several criteria for successful JIT Implementation in Manufacturing Sector. A deterministic quantitative model based on Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) technique has been developed for identifying and ranking the performance indicators. This concept has not been applied previously in the available literature for the selection problem. Six performance indicators, namely-Lead Time Reduction, Productivity, Profit, Product Quality, Difficulty in Implementation and Inventory have been considered for this study. Improper selection could affect a company's competitiveness in terms of the Productivity of its facilities and Quality of its products.

Keywords

Just In Time (JIT), Simple Additive Weighting (SAW), Productivity, Quality.
