Currently, a company produces parts per day to meet demand. A standard container of the parts under consideration holds items. It takes days to receive the parts once a card is released. If the company wants a safety stock of of these parts, how many kanban cards are needed?

6 kanban cards

Explanation:

Note: The full question is attached as picture below

D = 1800 parts/day

C = 175 items

LT = 0.25 days

SS = 650 Parts

N = {D*LT + SS]/C

N = [(1,800*0.25) + 650] / 175

N = (450 + 650) / 175

N = 1100 / 175

N = 6.29

N ≅ 6

So, if the company wants a safety stock of 650 of these parts, approximately, 6 kanban cards are needed.
