1. Course Overview

Effective just-in-time materials management requires more than isolated technical knowledge. Organizations need a structured approach that connects operating objectives, process discipline, people capability, data and cross-functional coordination.

The “Just-in-Time Materials Management” course helps participants understand core principles, apply practical tools and work through realistic manufacturing scenarios. The program is designed for managers, supervisors and professionals who need to convert knowledge into measurable workplace results.

Through discussions, case analysis, templates and applied exercises, participants learn how to identify issues, evaluate options, build action plans and sustain improvements in their own departments or production environments.

2. Learning Objectives

Understand the role, principles and business value of just-in-time materials management in manufacturing operations.
Identify current process gaps, risks, waste and improvement opportunities in the workplace.
Use relevant tools, indicators, templates and data to analyze problems and support decisions.
Coordinate effectively across production, maintenance, quality, planning, warehouse and support functions.
Develop feasible improvement actions aligned with safety, quality, productivity, cost and delivery objectives.
Establish follow-up indicators and routines to sustain results after the training program.

3. Target Participants

Production managers, supervisors and team leadersNeed to manage daily execution, performance, quality, cost and improvement on the shop floor.
Production engineers, process engineers and technical specialistsUse tools and data to analyze problems, improve processes and support operational decisions.
Quality, maintenance, planning, warehouse and supply-chain personnelCoordinate related processes that affect production stability and performance.
Lean, Kaizen and operational excellence practitionersNeed practical methods to identify opportunities, implement improvements and sustain results.
