Just-in-Time Stock Holding

Definition of 'Just-in-Time Stock Holding'

Materials and work-in-progress are delivered just before they are needed, and finished goods are produced just before being sent to customers.

This type of system relies on timely and accurate reporting of stock levels, which is handled using computers. It has the advantage of reducing the space required to hold stock, and the costs of financing the stock.
