Theory of Constraints Logic Trees

The Theory of Constraints, or ‘constraints management’ focuses efforts on finding and exploiting the true leverage points of a system for maximum effectiveness.

Theory of Constraints Basics

At its heart, the Theory of Constraints (TOC) searches for the fundamental constraints of a system… its root causes…

“A system’s constraint is nothing more than what we feel to be expressed by these words: anything that limits a system from achieving higher performance versus its goal.â” (Goldratt 1988, p. 453, 1990, p. 4)

In this way, TOC allows us to target critical leverage points, or bottlenecks, within the system at hand.

“The TOC approach epitomises systems thinking: a philosophy that recognises that the whole is much more than the sum of its parts, and that a complex web of interrelationships exist within the system.” (Mabin and Balderstone 2003, p. 570) Read more
