Answer:

The correct answer is A)

JIT is affected most when there is strong supply power and inadequate information technology capacity.

Explanation:

JIT refers to <em>Just in Time</em> which is a supply chain-related manufacturing technique/strategy which allows a business to produces an item only after the buyer has made the order. The objective is to keep low, inventories and the costs associated with it as well.

First, for JIT to work, all the processes involved in the production (starting from the acquisition of raw materials to delivery of raw materials, production, packaging, etc must be monitored and coordinated seamlessly. This is only possible with investments in technology that are able to automate communications across the supply chain.

Second, the JIT production model rests on the assumption that the suppliers will be able to meet up with any kind of demand for raw materials whether large or small at any time is demanded by the manufacturer. This places a huge reliance on the supplier. That is if anything goes wrong on the suppliers' side (intentionally or circumstantially) the entire model falls apart.

For instance, if the supplier is China and they have shut down the economy due to the Corona Pandemic, it means the country where the manufacturing operations is supposed to take place will automatically shut down as well.

Cheers!

How do a poem and a speech use language to achieve their goals?
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

it is a subjective art form that affords its authors the right to express themselves in ways both classical and innovative. Poems do not have to rhyme, neither do they have to follow any special structure or include any precise style. Still, most poems do emphasize a few key characteristics. These are stylistic choices that can diversify from piece to piece but must nevertheless be made by every poet. Figures of speech, or figurative language, are ways of describing or explaining things in a non-literal or non-traditional way.  Imagery is something ferroconcrete, like a sight, smell or taste. The imagery depicts what the poet sees, hears or otherwise senses, be it a literal image or one that exists in his mind. Visual imagery, which describes what the poet sees, is the most common type of image in poetry. It creates a picture that the reader or audience can see in his mind. The punctuation and composition of the poem deal with how it is systematized on the page and how the author signifies for you to read it.
