Pull replaces push Clause Samples

Pull replaces push. In a general MRP (material research planning) strategy, one is operating with a push system. This means that the products are produced with respect to the forecasts. In a Lean strategy they are operating with a pull system. In this way the production starts as soon as an order is received from a higher level. The product is then pulled through the system. This is the same strategy that they use in JIT (just in time) (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, 2007). See Figure 24.
