Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

The modern notion of "just in time" material delivery supports reduction of inventory and its associated costs. Plants that have sufficiently steady raw material usage will prefer supplies delivered "just in time."

Plants that have wildly varying production schedules or product mix may prefer a generous "safety stock." They may also prefer a generous supply inventory if their supply chain is unreliable.

It is true that most plants want to have supplies delivered just in time, but circumstances may make needs differ from wants.
