Bayer noted, “Signum, our electronic kanban system gives manufacturers a heads up to which of those four faxes might be problem and then frees you up to deal with them because our system has dealt with other 396 kanban signals with zero effort.” Bayer also noted that process improvement with existing suppliers will further reduce lead times and inventory levels and bring more suppliers onto system.

The leader in e-kanban is Datacraft Solutions. With more than 1000% growth in past twelve months, Datacraft Solutions anticipates a continued rate of growth throughout 2008.
