In one piece flow manufacturing products are manufactured one at a time and flow through the manufacturing and supply chain as a single unit fabricated as the customer ordered. All of the following are indicators one piece flow should be used EXCEPT:
  1. Leftover product at beginning and end of a production run.
  2. High inventory turns.
  3. Large batches of defects and rework with the same or similar defect.
  4. Long delivery lead times.
Explanation
Answer: B - High inventory turns are not indicators that one piece flow should be used. High inventory turns are a good thing. A low inventory turn would indicate a problem and necessitate the implementation of one piece flow.
