Abstract : Abstract: Traditional concepts of quality and customer satisfaction have been challenged in recent years and new
benchmarks have been established. Several Indian firms have either initiated steps towards JIT implementation or claim to
have already implemented many aspects of JIT. JIT system is globally accepted manufacturing strategy, which has been
found capable of reducing cost in all areas which emphasize on waste reduction. It is an approach to eliminate waste and
achieve excellence in manufacturing. Purchasing has been found to be an important area of JIT application because of its
potential for quality improvement and cost savings. JIT purchasing is the uninterrupted flow of 100 per cent acceptable
material delivered on due dates at optimal costs, 100 per cent of the time. On the basis of survey of Indian companies this
paper attempts to analyze the importance of attributes to JIT purchasing and supplier evaluation criteria.Study indicates that
separate implementation of JIT purchasing may not be feasible in many Indian Industries. However the system definitely
merits trials. Attention must be focused on the identified important attributes in the Industrial environment so that the
maximum benefits can be obtained out of JIT Implementation.
