 False
 True

Lean manufacturing is a ?

 Method for reducing labor cost
 Efficiency improvement technique
 Means to improve responsiveness to the customer
 Set of tools designed to improve productivity

The main objective of lean manufacturing is to ?

 Produce products with fewer options to simplify consumer choices
 Outsource much of our manufacturing in order to focus on final assembly

 Produce goods using less resources compared to mass production techniques

Following are the advantages of sticking to the takt time except ?

 The system is in synchronization with customer requirement
 Pull scheduling is disabled.
 Production is smoothly planned and operations will be carried out without interruptions
 It will give you the rhythm in which the system should operate
