There is no such thing as ‘Best’ … only
‘Better’… so rather than aiming to develop
a ‘Best Practice… just develop a “Better
Practice”.

WHAT IS THEORY OF CONSTRAINTS?
In the early 1980’s, an Israeli physicist, Dr. Eli Goldratt, started applying the mindsets and methods of the hard sciences to the “soft” science of analyzing, improving and managing organizations. Scientist searches for inherent simplicity – simple mechanisms or governing laws that explains complex phenomena. Goldratt realized there was also “inherent simplicity” within complex organizations. In the same way that the weakest link in a chain limits the strength of the whole chain, the performance of any organization is limited by its “system constraint” or bottleneck. He called his discovery and the related body of knowledge “Theory of Constraints” or TOC.

Creator of Theory of Constraints – Dr. Eli Goldratt
Dr. Eli Goldratt, the creator of Theory of Constraints, together with a group of TOC practitioners, have created a vast body of knowledge of how to apply the five focusing steps to different types of organizations and to different parts of the organization (operations, finance, supply chain, projects, sales, marketing and managing people).
