Kanban Replenishment

Kanban is an efficient, inventory-control system used to manage the supply chain.

Kanban is employed to achieve Just-in- Time (JIT) and Lean Manufacturing. Our Kanban system provides support for external devices such as barcode readers. This allows our system to read Kanban cards, and to trigger a replenishment signal. Kanban is a means of supporting pull-based, demand-driven replenishment in manufacturing systems.
