Job Shop

In a Job Shop production environment, the company can simply perform a service for customers such as machining services and/or produce a product. In the case of services only shops, there is typically a short turn around time for customer orders with a high emphasis placed on job status reporting and accurate labor and materials costing to the job. In addition to these requirements, a shop that produces a product will require tight inventory control and the ability to buy parts and materials to the job. Flexible job scheduling is also a requirement.
