The theoretical exploration of implementation of JIT purchasing from an integrated approach

摘要

The practice is the application of the theory and the theory emerges from the need of the practice. In general, the practice and the theory complement each other. Ha and Kim [Production Planning and Control, Vol. 8 (1997), pp. 152-157] discuss the implementation of JIT purchasing from the practical viewpoint. However, the main purpose of this paper explores the implementation of JIT purchasing from the theoretical approach such that practitioners apply it with confidence.
