This would further reduce the idle time of labour, machinery and equipments. Thus increasing the morale and discipline by an employee, Productive PPC helps the firm to increase its total retumns, market share, profitability. #6 Ic helps the firm to face the competition by maintaining stable inventory levels, best quality, stability and reasonable or affordable prices.
