    Which of the following is/are necessary for the successful operation of a just-in-time purchasing system?

    1. Long-term contracts with suppliers
    2. A reliable forecast of the level of demand
    3. An effective quality assurance programme

    A. 2 only

    B. 1 and 3 only

    C. 2 and 3 only

    D. 1, 2 and 3

    The correct answer is D.

    Sir, I didnt understand how 2 is correct ?
    isnt JIT focused on producing only when the order is made? so why will we need to know what the level of demand would be ?

    While JIT is a pull system that aims to produce only when there is an order, having a reliable forecast helps in planning and timing orders to avoid stockouts and production delays.
    Thus all three components are integral to the effective functioning of a JIT system.
