The increased global competition has led the industry to enhanced efficiency by means of economies of scale and internal specialization. To meet all the global challenges, organizations have adopted various innovative manufacturing techniques including just-in-time (JIT) production systems, International Standards Organization (ISO) 9000 certifications and total quality management (TQM). JIT has been envisaged as one of the strategic management initiatives evolved by Japans manufacturers to produce good quality products at low price.JIT enhances manufacturing performance by taking up world-class, lean and integrated manufacturing. The main objective of the research work was to analyse JIT initiatives adopted by Indian entrepreneurs for achieving competitive manufacturing, evaluation of JIT implementation capabilities of Indian Manufacturing Industry, evaluation of JIT manufacturing implications and key success factors for successful JIT implementation Indian Manufacturing Industry. The approach has been directed towards justification of JIT implementation for its support to competitive manufacturing in Indian Manufacturing Industries.
