Based on the video and operational management concepts:

1. Discuss what at a hospital might be managed on a just-in-time basis.

2. What contingency plans would need to be in place to handle potential supply disruptions? If a pack were missing any items, how might the delay affect the patient and the patient's family? Should the hospital hold safety stock? If so, should it hold safety stock packs for all types of surgeries or just some types of surgeries?

3. Finally, what is the cost tradeoff for the implementation?
