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.

The Goldratt Workshop for Technological Startups – Ensuring Success | top

Applying the Theory of Constraints In New Business

Startups are the basis for future economic growth, yet on average 30% - 50% of startups fail within 6 years, and another 30% are still floundering in the startup phase. Startups that are successful often endure a painful series of iterations involving large investments and long lead times.

Dr. Goldratt, challenges this reality using a proven, structured and scientific approach to target the survival and growth stages of any new startup company. The success rate of new Startups significantly increases when the right application is defined from the beginning and the lead time from the idea to actual sales is significantly reduced.

The Startup Workshop is a special program designed to lead participants through the systemic and practical application of the Thinking Processes of the Theory of Constraints (TOC) to new technological startup companies.
