Problem becomes more obvious is true regarding the PULL systems.

Option d

Explanation:

A pull system is a "Lean technique" used for reduction of waste for "production process". When we apply a pull system, it allows us to start new work only when customer demand for it. Using this system gives us the opportunity to reduce overhead and optimize storage costs.

By using lean pull principles, we can be much more predictable when planning your future work which will allow us to collect historical data about the workflow and the average cycle time of tasks and this is how problem becomes more obvious.
