What is really needed is expose the JIT pipeline to upstream. We are buying 10,000 parts but need 100 per week, figure out what works with your production pipeline to deliver at that rate or above.

Issue is that people will skew the numbers reported upstream. This way they can affect what their 'fair share' would be. This tends to devolve into everyone mis-reporting numbers in the same direction, causing the reported numbers to be useless upstream.
