The idea of “just in time” inventory is not new. Henry Ford of the Ford Motor Company is known to have applied this principle to the purchase of raw materials for automobile manufacturing in the early years of the 20th century. But you do not need to be Ford or Toyota to achieve the positive savings and organizational perks involved with being able to access inventory when you need it “just in time” without stockpiling.
Many small businesses like dental practices engage in the use of a “just in time” inventory approach out of necessity. With limited monetary resources on hand during this new economy, maintaining a small inventory of materials and parts simply makes sense. What is needed then is a supplier who can make this happen. Ortho Classic has created a product that addresses all of these issues and more.
