In-process inventory refers to work that has been started but is waiting for additional resources or materials to continue. This delay may be caused by resource shortages, such as not enough workers or equipment, and results in work piling up and waiting to be completed. Resource utilization refers to the actual use of available resources, while resource underutilization refers to not using available resources to their full potential. Efficiency refers to the ratio of output achieved to the input required.
