Abstract
The Milk Run has cut cycle times, inventory and freed floor space. It has saved over 80% of inventory; freed until 100% of warehouse areas to shopfloor and saved labor to build products instead of spending time to unpacking parts and searching for them, resulting in shorter cycle times. It can achieve truly smooth material flow.
