DEFINITIONS:
 A constraint is anything that prevents the system
from achieving more of its goal.
 The theory of constraints (TOC) is a management
philosophy that views any manageable system as
being limited in achieving more of its goals by a
very small number of Constraints.
SIOM | Symbiosis Institute Of Operations Management
 Introduced by Eliyahu M. Goldratt in 1984 in his
book titled The Goal.
 Mr. Goldratt adopted the concept with his
book Critical Chain, published in1997.
 The concept was extended to TOC with
respectively titled publication in 1999.
 Also known as Theory of Bottlenecks.

Strengthening Your "Weakest Link"
 Significance of bottlenecks
 Speed
 Improvements wasted
SIOM | Symbiosis Institute Of Operations Management
ASSUMPTIONS
Organizations can be measured and controlled by
variations on three measures:
1. Throughput
2. Operational expense
3. Inventory

 Subordinate
 Elevate
 Repeat

TYPES OF CONSTRAINTS:
o External constraints.
 Material
 Market
o Internal constraints.
 Equipment
 People
 Policy

APPLICATIONS IN DIFFERENT AREAS
 Finance & Accounting
 Throughput Accounting
 Throughput = sales – variable cost
 Project Management
 Critical Chain Project Management(CCPM)
 all activities converge to a final deliverable
 Marketing and Sales
 Sales Process Engineering

CASE STUDY ON OREGON(OFD)
 Problem faced:
 High Inventory
 High lead time
 Make to stock
 Solutions:
 Find out the
constraint
 Limited Freezing
Space
 Exploit the
constraint
 VFD-variable
frequency drives
 Subordinate the
rest of the
organization
 Control the flow
of Cooked/Dry
food
Make to stock +
make to order

PROS 
 Increases in productivity with minimal changes to operations
 Reduce cycle time
 Time from receipt of customer order to shipment
 Optimizes inventory
 Improves communication between departments
 Dramatically reduces the damages caused when the flow of
goods is interrupted by shortages and surpluses.
