    Push, Pull and Hybrid Production Systems

    Uploaded by

    Ash Denem
    This document compares push and pull production systems. A push system like MRP allows for planning and controlling of production but can lead to large inventories. It requires maintaining production schedules and databases. A pull system like JIT limits inventory and relies on customer demand to pull materials through production. However, it requires high quality and balanced systems to avoid delays from issues. The document provides advantages and disadvantages of MRP as a push system and JIT as a pull system and references sources for further information.
