Question
In a Lean production system, which of the following
types of waste refers to producing more than what is required or before it is needed?Solution
Overproduction is one of the seven classic wastes (muda) identified in Lean. It occurs when items are produced ahead of demand, causing excess inventory, higher storage costs, and potential obsolescence. Lean principles emphasize producing only what is needed, when it’s needed, to maintain smooth flow and minimize waste.
