FALSE

The pull model is demand driven rather then forecast driven and thus is Make-to-Order not Make-to Stock e.g. as used by supermarkets

 

The Make-to-Stock is the traditional manufacturing strategy of businesses that relies on production based on demand forecasts rather then actual demand

False

A pull strategy is related to the just-in-time school of inventory management that minimizes stock on hand, focusing on last-second deliveries. Under these strategies, products enter the supply chain when customer demand justifies it

  DEFINITION of 'Make To Stock - MTS'

A traditional production strategy used by businesses to match production with consumer demand forecasts. The make-to-stock (MTS) method forecasts demand to determine how much stock should be produced. If demand for the product can be accurately forecasted, the MTS strategy can be an efficient choice.
