Implementing TOC for operations in an "I type" plant

by Dr. Eliyahu M. Goldratt It is well known that implementing the TOC solution for operations brings significant benefits, being one of them the release of additional capacity without any investment in equipment. In the case of production lines or production environments with well implemented Kanban systems the release of additional capacity can be even more significant. Even though TOC has shown that an additional 30% increase in capacity is possible, it turns out that a closer look into these environments (called “I plants” due to its configuration) can bring up to 60% more capacity. Goldratt explains why and how this is possible. Language: English Details & Options

by Dr. Eliyahu M. Goldratt Dr. Eliyahu M. Goldratt continues telling us about his journey on the development of TOC. The realization that in every single case where the Theory of Constraints was implemented in operations the constraint moved to the market and caused the need to find a solution to address the market constraint rather than continuing improving operations.
