Kanban Pull Systems (Logistics)

Quelle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanban_(manufacturing)

A Kanban pull system in logistics is a demand-driven control mechanism in which material or information flows are triggered by Kanban signals (cards or electronic signals): when a downstream process consumes inventory, it sends a Kanban signal to the upstream process to initiate replenishment. This minimizes inventory levels and enables just-in-time delivery.
