Can you explain the concept of JIT and Lean production to them and help them apply the same in order to reduce their troubles?

Answer 1

The Just-In-Time (JIT) idea is an assembling work process procedure pointed toward diminishing stream times and expenses inside creation frameworks and the conveyance of materials. 

Lean production is a production methodology focused on eliminating waste, where waste is anything that does not add value for the customer.

MG Motors should consolidate both JIT and Lean creation to reduce time and wastage in the creation framework towards bettering their effectiveness.
