Theory Of Constraints
1970’s 1980’s 1990’s 2000’s
OPT
Invented by Dr. Eliyahu Goldratt
Aims to continually achieve more of the goal of a system
Derived from the hard sciences (physics)
2010’s

Constraint
The factor that limits a system’s performance relative to its goal.
HOW STRONG IS
THE CHAIN?

TOC’s 5 Focusing Steps
1. Identify the constraint
2. Exploit the constraint
3. Subordinate everything else to the constraint
4. Elevate the constraint
5. Go back to Step 1 (don’t allow Inertia to set in)

TOC for Operations
Improving FLOW is the Primary Goal of Operations
Dr. Goldratt
TOC acknowledges that UNCERTAINTIES & VARIABILITY are intrinsic in all operations

Missed Commitments
(Delays)
Pressure to Release work earlier to meet deadlines
Work piles up & waits for resources
Priority juggling, multitasking,
spreading thin
Tasks take longer, Productivity is low

TOC’s Principles of Flow
• Improving FLOW is a primary objective of operations.
• This primary objective should be translated into a practical mechanism that guides the operation when NOT to produce (i.e. how to maintain Low WIP)
• Local efficiencies must be abolished
• A focusing process to balance flow must be in place

Challenging Basic Assumptions
The earlier we start, the sooner we will finish
The better the worker/ work center efficiency, the higher the throughput
