Webinar by Dr. Efrat Goldratt-Ashlag about her new book “Goldratt’s Rule of Flow” on the 4th of July. The initial description of Critical Chain Project Management is over 25 years old. Dr. Efrat Goldratt-Ashlag’s recent book “Goldratt’s Rules of Flow” published in January 2023 is the new introduction to the subject. Efrat is Eliyahu Goldratt’s daughter and co-author with here father of the book “The Choice”. […] In 1997 Eliyahu Goldratt published the novel “Critical Chain”. He passed away in 2011. Now his daughter, revisits the subject with all the lessons learnt over the past 2 decades. […] In this new, authoritative, description of what the Theory of Constraints’ approach to project management is, Efrat Goldratt-Ashlag proposes 9 rules of flow. […] In this webinar, Efrat will describe the most important rules of flow but she will also provide numerous anecdotes of how Critical Chain emerged and the pains and frustrations of her father, Dr. Eliyahu Goldratt, as he initially imagine, improved through feedback and perfected this revolutionary way of managing projects.
La Cadena Crítica es una metodología que ha revolucionado la gestión de proyectos desde la década de 1990 al entregar proyectos a tiempo, dentro del presupuesto y el alcance, algo desconocido para la mayoría de las empresas de proyectos. Este manual entrega el QUÉ y el CÓMO para una implementación exitosa de la gestión de proyectos mediante la Teoría de Restricciones usando la Cadena Crítica (CCPM). Además, contiene tips y experiencias prácticas de cómo implementar de la mano de expertos como David Updegrove, Mathias Fischer y Javier Arevalo, quienes en conjunto suman más de 100 años de experiencia.

Translation of David Updegrove's (good) book with additional chapters by Javier Aravelo and Mathias Fischer
“Critical Chain is simple, though not easy. Yet, it’s worth it!” “Our portfolio instead of my project” A fall in deadline delays from 50% to 25% within 18 months. The throughput has increased threefold – with the same amount of resources. Clear priorities for project operations – avoiding the harmful multitasking.
This is more successful than anything we have ever wanted from this change process. A big surprise. [...] The newfound transparency helps everyone to participate and to help each other along the way, “Selders concludes.” CCPM is simple, though not easy, yet, it is worth it! – Dr. Peter Selders, Head of Research and Development
[...] discusses how four theories (TQM, ToC, Lean/Six Sigma, Deming's 14 points) inform approaches to managing project teams, listing Deming's 14 points and identifying its key message.
[...] This paper examines how project managers can manage these dynamics through a process of integrating the total quality management (TQM) teachings of Edward Deming with the theory of constraints (ToC) by Eli Goldratt. ...
Using Critical Chain Project Management To Finish More Projects Faster. Circor Aerospace and Defense testimonial. FREE tickets available. 18th April. Online. Organized by @TOCICO.
Circor Aerospace & Defense’s on-time finish performance of new product development projects was not at the expected level. They suffered from projects finishing late, problems with specifications, silo phenomenon, and they were limited in their capacity to run projects by a capacity constraint in the Qualification Laboratory. They decided to implement Critical Chain Project Management. [….] The project durations were reduced, and the projects finished on time. The efficiency and throughput of the New Product Development also increased. Following the success of the pilot projects, they then rolled out the Critical Chain Way on their entire portfolio. All these actions resulted in better managerial alignment, improved communication and better problem escalation within the project teams.
Productivity Analysis Using the Critical Chain Project Method Management (CCPM) on Repair Projects Geomarin-III ship 649 DWT. Ari Wibawa Budi Santosa, Ocid Mursid, M. Angger Kalingga, Syaiful Tambah Putra Ahmad, Andi Trimulyono
Ship repair project planning still often encountered problems that delay ship repair projects to achieve complete ship repair projects. Delays are due to frequent mismatches between ship repair scheduling and conditions that occur at the shipyard. The most commonly used method is the Critical Path Method (CPM). But in reality, the CPM method is considered less effective because there is still safety time for each job. [....] the repair of the Geomarin-III 649 DWT ship with the Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) method is 10 days, 10 days faster than the normal duration. The labor cost obtained using the CCPM method is IDR. 54,017,500, saving 35% [....] Based on this research, it was found that the CCPM method is considered effective and can accelerate the duration of the project and minimize labor costs.

Marc Wilson is not giving up. He is determined to turn around the struggling family company and keep it, despite his father's decision to sell. The problem is that they are late on more and more projects and their customers won't tolerate it anymore. Marc is looking everywhere for a solution, when in one of his MBA classes he comes across a unique approach that views operations in terms of flow. The concept of flow is straightforward. It's easy to visualize the stream of projects going through the system and understand that if something clogs the flow, the projects pile up; the lead time gets longer, abd as a result the reliability of due dates suffers. What is not so easy is to uncover the specific obstacles that obstruct the flow and figure out how to remove them.

David Updegrove describes his book "The Critical Chain Implementation Handbook". He explains why he wrote this "How to Implement" guidebook and why he based it on the Theory Of Constraints' Critical Chain "Strategy & Tactics Tree".
Engineering To Order (ETO) companies design and manufacture customized products on demand; the process uses customer requirements to define, engineer, and validate a new design that will satisfy those requirements. In this type of business the lead times for customers is much longer than for standard products made to stock.
These long lead times are usually a problem [...] we will show how doing business the Critical Chain Way enables impressive increases in speed.
We will also show, based on many examples, the other significant positive impacts: big increases in productivity [...] much better visibility throughout the organization [...], better quality of life for the actors, and greatly improved honoring of the promised end dates. ...
Efrat Goldratt-Ashlag has taken on the mantle of writing a business novel in the style of her father, Eli Goldratt. Goldratt’s Rules of Flow takes Eli Goldratt’s “Four Concepts of Flow” into project management environments and shows how some basic rules of flow can significantly reduce the chaos

Simon Wallis, Business Manager and Site PMO for GSK Barnard Castle shares the story of piloting Critical Chain in a Pharmaceutical company. Q&A is also included! GSK already had a good track record of delivery and success, but Simon Wallis came across the Critical Chain method and quickly realized this was approach which would solve project problems, provide more visibility of the project status and progress, and achieve a more collaborative environment.
In this video, Philip Marris interviews Simon White from BAE Systems.

Be Fast or Be Gone is a business novel that explains how to implement Critical Chain Project Management and presents results achieved thanks to this methodology derived from Theory Of Constraints (TOC). In this book, in order to save his son's life, Mike Knight joins the company Altus Labs so the drug Supragel (medecine against cancer) goes from test I phase to test II phase in 6 months instead of 1 year. As a second step, his mission is to monitor the whole Albus Labs' projects portfolio and accelerate the development of all molecules.

Critical chain, critical path - What is the difference between these two project management methods?
The critical path. The critical path represents the longest chain of activities and milestones for which there is no time buffer. This means that activities that are on the critical path must not be delayed, otherwise the total project duration is delayed by the same amount. On the other hand, if you finish activities that are on the critical ...
