Synchrono eKanban Featured in Logistics Business

Logistics Business recently featured a Synchrono whitepaper sharing the leader in modern demand-driven manufacturing software and synchronization technology, titled “Going eKanban.”  Based on years of working with manufacturers to introduce Lean, or pull-based inventory replenishment methods and grounded in Lean manufacturing and Just-in-Time (JIT) principles, Kanban is a pull-based inventory replenishment process.

The Kanban process allows manufacturers to respond quickly to changes in demand while maintaining minimal, on hand inventories. The result is substantial savings in inventory storage and costs associated with material waste.

A Kanban contains information on the part or component tracked in inventory and the point at which to reorder. The Kanban may be physical – a card, labeled container, or parts bin – where consumption and reorder points are manually monitored. Or, the Kanban may be electronic. Manufacturers using an electronic Kanban, or eKanban system, scan parts or components as they are received into inventory and again, as they are consumed. eKanban software aligns inventory levels with real-time consumption, sending demand signals to suppliers to replenish parts as needed. These signals are tracked through the replenishment cycle, bringing visibility to both the manufacturer and its supplier.

Logistics Business magazine is the only pan-European logistics journal. It is the top lead-generating magazine in the industry.
