What are the elements of balanced production in lean production management?

Three elements of balanced production:

The establishment of balanced production system includes three interrelated elements: demand forecast, pull system and balanced order.

① A good demand forecasting mechanism needs to be established.

Coordinate market research, marketing strategy and customer relationship, and accurately grasp market demand.

② Establish a pull system between demand and production.

Demand forecast can't change the fluctuation of customer demand. By pulling the system, the fluctuation of demand can be stabilized, which lays the foundation for realizing full-load balanced production.

(3) Balanced orders, that is, the output and varieties can be averaged.

Due to the needs of market and competition, enterprises often provide multiple varieties of products for the market at the same time. However, the customer's order flow is often random and fluctuating. If it is completely orderly, it will lead to obvious fluctuations in production quantity and difficulties in production organization. If the orders for a period of time are summarized and produced in turn by varieties, although the production organization is simple, it will fall into the pain of mass production-leading to excessive inventory, long delivery time and loss of sensitivity to market changes. This scheme can distribute the total order quantity in a period of time to every day according to the variety, so that the daily output and variety are basically balanced, which not only meets the balanced demand of the market, but also meets the stable requirements of production.
