Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A just-in-time inventory system relies on having multiple sources of supply to ensure that the necessary materials and products are available when needed, without the need for excess inventory. This helps to reduce the need for warehouse space and keep distribution systems efficient. While a broad customer base and computer-assisted manufacturing may be beneficial for other aspects of the business, they are not as directly related to the effectiveness of a just-in-time inventory system.
