The losses resulting from Hurricane Floyd affected Ontario also.A Daimler Chrysler plant in Greenville, North Carolina was flooded as a result of the hurricane.This in turn resulted in a shortage of suspension parts for the minivan plant in Windsor, Ontario.Strikes and other labour actions can also have an extreme impact on plants using JIT systems.This illustrates a problem with JIT, when companies are located relatively close to one another.Can JIT be used when plants are scattered all over the world.
