material control

material control
The control of the materials required in a production process. It includes seeing that they are available in the required place, at the required time, and in the required quantities, as well as ensuring that the materials are properly accounted for. While it is clearly imperative that a production process should not be delayed by lack of materials, it is also important that overstocking of inventories should be avoided.
