The JIT/Leаn prоductiоn plаnt is lаid оut differently than a traditional production plant. It is proven that cycle time for a product in a JIT/Lean layout can be expected to be less than half of that for the same product in a traditional plant layout. Describe each of these two layouts and discuss the advantage of the JIT/Lean layout over the traditional layout in terms of work-in-process (WIP) movement and operator interaction.
