WGU C720 Competency 6: Operating
Efficiency Question and answers
correctly solved 2025
Just-in-time (JIT) - correct answer ✔manufacturing methodology aimed
primarily at reducing flow times within production systems as well as response
times from suppliers and to customers by receiving ordering and receiving
inventory when ready for use or just in time for use
What are the fundamental concepts of JIT? - correct answer ✔- JIT allows
materials to flow in an assembly process similar to a continuous flow process
- uses general purpose machinery
- produces in small batches or small lot sizes
- uses a pull system
- uses process facility layout
Just-in-Time 2 (JIT II) - correct answer ✔relationships with suppliers are
further strengthened beyond vendor managed inventory in which the supplier
places a representative on the customer's site that is dedicated to the
customers products only
Push System - correct answer ✔moves materials through the process
operations based on a schedule
Pull System - correct answer ✔moves materials through a system to work-
stations as they are needed
