A parallel-path model separates normal production from recall or correction work. One workflow continues producing, fulfilling, and shipping new products, while a second workflow handles affected inventory that needs inspection, sorting, relabeling, repackaging, component replacement, re-kitting, or other correction work.
This model helps manufacturers avoid turning their production floor into a temporary rework area. Instead of diverting internal labor, space, and management attention from active orders, the company can quarantine affected inventory and move it to an external partner equipped to perform controlled correction work.
PPS supports this type of parallel workflow through contract assembly, kitting, relabeling, repackaging, fulfillment, product rework, ERP-supported inventory control, and documented quality processes.
