• Key Concepts: 
  One-time kanban is a type of kanban system used in supply chain management. It is a pull-based system that uses cards or containers to signal the need for replenishment of materials. The one-time kanban system is used when the demand for a product is low and the production process is relatively simple. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The one-time kanban system works by having a card or container sent from the customer to the supplier. This card or container signals the need for replenishment of materials. The supplier then sends the materials to the customer, who then uses them to produce the product. The customer then sends back the card or container to the supplier, signaling that they have received the materials and are ready for more. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using a one-time kanban system, it is important to ensure that all cards or containers are properly labeled and tracked. This will help ensure that all materials are properly replenished and that no materials are wasted. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all cards or containers are returned promptly so that production can continue without interruption.
