Waiting time is a non-productive time for the materials in the procedure. Waiting time is time that is not productive for the materials in the procedure. As waiting time grows, so does the average WIP stock.

The longer procedure is delayed, the more money is spent. It can also lead to a significant decline in total firm performance since employees become inactive as well as production system utilization falls. The firm's total output will be lower, as well as the expenses incurred will be higher, reducing the company’s income even further.

Reduced waiting time minimizes stock investment as well as enhances material flow across the process. Waiting time decrease enhances procedure utilization. Labor hours are ideal for output when the waiting time is decreased. The expense of labor will be reduced as a result of this efficient use of workers.

In most systems, totally eliminating the waiting period would be extremely complex, if not unfeasible. Since the production method is a chain of tasks that incorporates multiple processes, variability in any procedure is expected to produce waiting time at a certain point in the network. Better output at one step may result in longer wait times at the other, as well as the ideal matching of procedures is always shifting. Overall, waiting time in the production process cannot be totally eliminated.
