"Lean is essentially trimming the fat of an organization. There shouldn't be wasteful operations occurring in any industry and the service industry is no different. As explained in the text, suppliers need to be contacted on a just in time basis for the food industry because they do not need the food to spoil. There is no point in buying supplies that will never be used, so suppliers need to be sure to only provide food that won't waste."
How do I reply to this?
