Bose Corporation is exploring adopting a Just-in-Time inventory system called JIT II where key suppliers would be located onsite. This could provide benefits like reduced lead times and costs. However, vendors may be hesitant due to financial investment required. Bose recommends incentivizing vendors by treating their representatives as employees and offering prestige and business opportunities. Bose would also need criteria to select vendors and ensure fair pricing and confidentiality if adopting JIT II.
