Lean production aims to maximize customer value while minimizing waste. It originated from Toyota and focuses on eliminating sources of waste. Just-in-time (JIT) is a key element of lean production that seeks to provide the right part at the right place at the right time with zero inventory. JIT was developed by Toyota in Japan in the 1970s and has since spread worldwide. Bisleri uses JIT in its production process by reducing stocks and using a kanban signaling system between production line workers.
