Final answer:

Kanban focuses on specific part numbers; CONWIP does not.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement is true.

Kanban and CONWIP are both inventory control systems used in manufacturing. Kanban focuses on specific part numbers by using cards or signals to indicate when more parts need to be produced and delivered to the production line. This ensures that there is a steady supply of specific parts.

On the other hand, CONWIP (Constant Work-In-Progress) does not focus on specific part numbers. It works by limiting the amount of work in progress in the system, allowing the production line to flow smoothly without excessive inventory.
