Organizations are Complex Systems, whose performance are determined by their Constraints
We Focus Improvement with Theory of Constraints
Theory of Constraints: The Foundations of Our Solutions
Theory of Constraints - abbreviated as TOC - is a Scientific Management approach developed by Dr. E. Goldratt, for improving performance of each Organisation by focusing the management attention on the limiting factors. Starting from a simple and coherent algorithm to exploit the constraints, TOC evolved from Manufacturing to many other functional areas:
-
Supply Chain Planning and Execution, synchronizing flow, reducing lead times and working capital, improving cash-to-cash cycle time, with demand-driven approaches. Hence the Demand Driven MRP (DDMRP) has derived the logic at the foundations of its algorithms.
-
Inventory & Distribution, adopting pull logic to replenish the network, improving availability and service level to unleash the full potential of the Organisation.
-
Project Management, delivering superior results on Project and Project Portfolio Management, achieving on time and on budget performance without compromising the Project Statement of Work.
-
Strategy, Decision Making and Controlling, applying a paradigm shift to Business Architecture Design and Organisational Performance Measurement
-
Sales, by offering solutions to differentiate the offering and create your own Blue Ocean.

They Say About Theory of Constraints

Luca Zigiotti - CFO
Theory of Constraints has simply changed my life, both personally and professionally, giving me the right key to understand the corporate world [...] Because TOC cleanses our minds and focuses people on a single and core question: why aren't we making as much money as we could?
And if we realize that TOC demonstrates that what we call "faults" are very often just illogical behaviors that are caused by wrong measures, then the sense of liberation is truly full.
Every time I've applied TOC principles in my professional life, the results have been extraordinary.
