But B) make-to-stock could fit too. It’s about inventory.

Heijunka? More like "hey, June, can you level out this production for me?" Am I right, or am I right?

D) produce to stock production. Really? Heijunka is the opposite of that. It's all about producing what's needed, not just piling up inventory.

B) make-to-stock production. Nah, that's not it. Heijunka is about producing to customer demand, not just stockpiling inventory.

C) a chase production strategy. Hmm, I thought heijunka was about smoothing out production, not chasing it.

I feel like I’ve seen heijunka described as a strategy to avoid fluctuations in production, which sounds like A to me, but I could be mixing it up with something else.

I’m confused because I thought heijunka was more about making to stock, but that might be a different concept.

I remember practicing a question about production strategies, and I think heijunka was mentioned as a way to smooth out production. Maybe it’s A?

Ugh, I'm drawing a blank on the specifics of heijunka. Is it about producing to stock or chasing demand? I'll have to guess on this one and hope for the best.

I'm a bit confused on the differences between these options. I know heijunka is about leveling production, but I'm not totally clear on how that compares to the other choices. Might need to review my notes on this.

Hmm, this one seems straightforward. I think it's A - level production, but I'll double-check the definitions just to be sure.
