Its affects ability for reconfiguration of the transfer process if the possibilities to change suppliers minimize. Now, it
will improve organization in product and process improvement that will improve capabilities to release high quality
products.
3 Motivations
It provides the strength for doing best result and provides proper implementation of JIT, FMS and RMS.
4 Basic roles of employees
Employees are the first step for good and future development and overall improvements Future can be make better
by JIT, FNS and reconfigurablity and motivation to employees. So they have a strong role.
5 Short-term goals
Short term goals shows the actual picture of organization. So these are important for continuous grouth in
organization.
6 Hy-tech and automatic manufacturing
Hy-tech and automatic manufacturing provide some advantages in quality, product development and productivity.
Still, more hy-tech and automated machinery is not very flexible in terms of reconfiguring the system.
7 Standardization
Standardization is very important for any of industry for best production.
8. Conclusion:
Today, the world is rapidly changed in manufacturing. The efficiency and performance of the manufacturing system
is mostly depends on time of job completion or minimum wastage, percent of flexible as well as being able to
reconfigure the system for current requirement. JIT provides us minimum wastage in raw material and FMS is an
important area and continuous for future manufacturing. Sometimes, the customer does not satisfied with FMS
because of some problems, including its lack of reconfigurablity. This research paper shows that use of JIT with
FMS and RMS is a satisfactory way of satisfy customer needs with full fill their demands by minimizing wastage in
material and other wastage.
9. Future Researches
The research area of FMS and RMS is too broad and has large areas for future research but with the JIT it will be
smooth, time oriented and with minimum wastage. Few suggested areas are formulated.
‣ To create advance future technology for evaluation when there is a requirement for flexibility and
Reconfigurablity but with minimum wastage.
‣ To measurement for analysis of flexibility and reconfigurablity in an existing manufacturing system with
JIT by latest complementary methods.
‣ To create methods with software based with a user-friendly interface in industry.
‣ To implement software’s for control and change for better.
