In this article it will be analyzed when it is worth inserting safety time and when it is justified to holding safety stock so that the base materials, auxiliary materials and parts required for the production can be provided continuously according to the requirements. It will be assumed, that the increase of the distance does not always mean the increase of the transportation time as far as the directions are concerned. In this article, factors that play – besides the distance - a role in the variation of the transportation time are presented. In this research the proportion with which the size of the safety stock and the safety time required for the production when the distance is increasing are defined.
