benefits of a pull system

拉动系统的好处

One of the great Lean Six Sigma strategies that had its origins based in the Toyota Production System (TPS) is the pull system. The pull system is used to cut down on waste in the production or manufacturing processes. In other words, only make enough product to fulfill the customer’s demand.

拉动系统VS推动系统

Pull VS Push

Most companies subscribe to a push system when manufacturing products, which means that they produce more products than they actually need. The company then has to forecast what their customers will buy in the future. This leaves room for overproduction, since forecasting the future is unpredictable. The products can produce a very large inventory that just sits there taking up valuable workspace for weeks, months or even years.

大多数的公司在生产产品时，会支持推动系统，意味着生产的产品比实际需求的要多。然后，公司必须去预测客户后续会买什么产品。这就为过量生产留出了余地，因为未来是瞬息万变的。这些产品，可以导致相当大的库存，而要占据宝贵的工作场地长达数周、数月，甚至数年之久。

A pull system only deals with what the customer’s demands are. This alone does away with a multitude of waste and decreases production costs. Since you are only manufacturing what the customer demands, the quantity that you are actually manufacturing is smaller, thus you can catch errors made in the production process. Consequently, higher customer satisfaction is experienced.

拉动系统，只生产客户需要的产品。单单是拉动系统，便能消除大量的浪费，并降低生产的成本。因为，只生产客户真正需要的产品。因此，实际生产的产品数量会相对较少，我们可以找出生产过程中的错误。由此，我们会体会到更高的客户满意度。

Another benefit of subscribing to a pull system of manufacturing is keeping up with how fast changes occur in today’s economy.  Using the pull system within your business culture will automatically increase the flexibility within your business, which will lead to more customer satisfaction.  Using the pull system of manufacturing will lead to more profits. Whether it is a savings in actual production costs, an increase in customers, or customer satisfaction, the benefits are not to be dismissed.

支持生产拉动系统的另一个好处是，紧跟当今经济的快速变革的步伐。在企业文化中运用拉动系统，将能自动提高企业的灵活性，这也将带来更高的客户满意度。运用生产拉动系统，会带来相当多的好处。无论是实际生产成本节约，还是客户增加，还是客户满意度提升，这些，都是我们无法忽略的好处。

文末总结

Summary

Remember, in a pull system of manufacturing, all of your company’s current supplies are used for manufacturing current goods and sold, thus producing immediate profit.

请记住，在生产拉动系统中，你所在单位的所有的现有物资，都会被用于对当前产品的制造与销售，从而产生即时的利润。
