In addition, applying these systems may take a long time which could be up to 20 years and there is a Keenness from companies not to publish their experiences, fearing of coping or participation in competitive advantages. Companies dealt with study such as Toyota motors, Dell, Green Gear, Nigerian companies, Seattle Children’s Hospital and International Changi Airport in Singapore achieved a lot of advantages because of applying JIT systems.
