Many complex multi-item manufacturing shops have high levels of work-in-process because of queueing delays at machines and consequently long manufacturing lead times. These delays are directly related to lot sizes. Two alternative approaches applied to modeling a manufacturing cell—simulation and a novel analytical lot-sizing model (Q-LOTS)—provide very similar results and validate the analytical model.
