Theory of Constraints

All sys­tems have fac­tors that lim­it their out­put. The fac­tor that sets the pace for the entire sys­tem is known as the con­straint. The suc­cess­ful oper­a­tion of any sys­tem depends on our abil­i­ty to max­i­mize these con­straints. The The­o­ry of Con­straints is a step-by-step approach to iden­ti­fy, max­i­mize, mea­sure, and man­age the con­straints in a system.
