Resolving a Family Feud: Market-Facing versus Lean Manufacturing Families

Robert A. Stahl and William Kerber

Foresight: The International Journal of Applied Forecasting, 2010, issue 17, 32-36

Abstract: Two very important business processes are Lean Manufacturing and Executive S&OP. Both processes require grouping products into families but for very different uses, so there is a sharp difference between how each process defines a family. In this column, Bob Stahl and Bill Kerber show how to resolve the family feud by converting market forecasts into production requirements. Copyright International Institute of Forecasters, 2010
