Nowadays, many manufacturers are now critically evaluating their processes to determine their effectiveness in bringing maximum value to customers where the techniques can give greatly minimize delays, reduce costs, and improve quality. Lean manufacturing is more than a set of tools and techniques and has been widely adopted by many production companies when combined and matured, allow to reduce and eliminate the waste from a company. It can be a continuously look for ways to improve processes and being used in Production Planning. Production planning and scheduling becomes very important part of production management because companies have to react to dynamic market conditions and rising customers' requirements for shorter delivery times, lower prices and better quality and services. The company under study facing the problems of not meeting the parameters production which is under the target, among other parameters such as productive time and target ratio. The study investigated the causes of the problem through statistical analysis of the current achievement. It was found among the problem was human errors and transferring data among the department. This make miscommunication between departments. Kanban system approach was use to solve this problem, at the same time it combined with auto scheduling to eliminate miscommunication among the department on the production target between the supplier and user between two department. This Kanban System improved by integrating the Auto Scheduling tools for better Production planning. This can be shown by the increasing of productive time, eliminating miscommunication in the target. The objective of this study is to highlight the Kanban system implementation together with the Auto Scheduling have improved the manufacturing system as well as achieved "Just ln Time" practice.
