Original Abstract Submitted

According to an embodiment, there is provided a management method for a manufacturing line. The management method includes obtaining a fluctuation characteristic including at least one of an arrival fluctuation characteristic of a lot to a process area, a capability fluctuation characteristic of the process area, or a stay fluctuation characteristic of the lot in the process area in a manufacturing line in which multiple process areas including the process area are arranged, the multiple process areas each including multiple resources. The management method includes obtaining inventory information regarding an inventory to be provided in the process area depending on the fluctuation characteristic.
