Just$-$In$-$Time $($JIT$)$ and Lean systems for a T$-$shirt business are two manufacturing philosophies that focus on reducing waste, improving efficiency, and increasing productivity.

JIT is a system that involves producing and delivering products just in time to meet customer demand, without building up excess inventory. JIT aims to minimize waste and reduce costs by producing only what is needed, when it is needed, and in the quantities required.

Lean is a broader philosophy that encompasses many of the same principles as JIT, but also includes a focus on continuous improvement and the elimination of all forms of waste throughout the entire organization, not just in the manufacturing process. Lean aims to create a culture of continuous improvement by involving all employees in the process and encouraging them to identify and eliminate waste in all areas of the business.
