I started working with Eliyahu Goldratt when I was 26. The bestseller-to-be The Goal had just been published. This was in 1985, I had just joined a start-up called Creative Output and Eli was one of the 4 founders. The company sold “OPT”, a scheduling software that managed the flow of production in factories in a revolutionary way…the Theory Of Constraints Way.
34 years later I have implemented the Theory Of Constraints (TOC) ideas over 280 times in organizations in over 25 countries and in a variety of industries. Some of my better-known clients are: McDonald’s, Louis Vuitton, Embraer, Siemens, GSK, Air France, Safran and Ariane rockets
Throughout this journey Eliyahu Goldratt had an enormous impact on me. Here are some of my key learnings. ...

Many projects fail due to unrealistic promises, multitasking overload, and poor workflow management. Unrealistic deadlines lead to delays, excessive task switching reduces efficiency, and project congestion slows progress. To address these issues, we propose a three-level control system. - Portfolio management ensures the system is not overwhelmed with too many projects. - Critical Chain Project Management eliminates excessive safety margins by using a shared buffer, improving predictability. - Execution management uses Kanban and Agile techniques ...

In this video, Philip Marris presents the different components developed by Eliyahu Goldratt.
Eliyahu Goldratt is best known for his novel The Goal, explaining the basics of the Theory of Constraints (TOC) applied to operations. However, his work covers a lot of other topics. Some of them are related to constraints and bottlenecks in several fields of expertise. Eliyahu Goldratt also wanted to "teach the World to think", this is also known as the Logical Thinking Process. As this last part does not deal with constraints, Philip Marris separates the "Theory of Constraints" from "Logical Thinking", both of them being part of "Goldrattism".
A series of short videos about the Theory Of Constraints (Constraint Management) applied to Information Technology. What is different when you apply the ideas of TOC to I.T.? What kind of constraints will you find? What relationship with Agile approaches? What about hardware ? Software ? Networks ? Architecture ? Technical debt & legacy systems ? Etc. Expert John Ricketts, author of 2 best-selling books on the subject is interviewed by Philip Marris.
Clarke Ching, author of “Rolling rocks downhill” and many other best selling books was guest of Marris Consulting in Paris. During his stay, Clarke gave a conference and got interviewed by Philip Marris. At some point the two swapped roles and Clarke interviewed Philip. Clarke is an IT guy and he wanted to know how to identify bottlenecks in factories and in product development processes. He has since written many bestselling books: “Rolling rocks downhill”; "The Bottleneck Rules" "Rocks into Gold" "6 lessons with Eli Goldratt"; "Corkscrew solutions"; etc.
McDonald’s in France have over 1,400 restaurants. The French market is recognised as the most difficult market in the world because clients eat at very specific times and the culinary expectations are very high. It has for many years been one of the most innovative of McDonald’s markets. When rolling out the new “Made For You” global operational model they took the opportunity to rethink how they managed operations in their restaurants. Using a mixture of Theory Of Constraints, Lean and common sense they redefined how they managed flow. As a result

An online e-Learning course by Bill Dettmer to teach the Logical Thinking Process is being on Monday 12th September 2022. It aims at answering these four fundamental questions to address your systemic problem: - What is expected? - What to change? - What to change to? - How to cause the change? To do so, the methodology - which is part of the Theory Of Constraints - suggests a cycle that includes the building of five logic trees which are interdependent: the Goal Tree, the Current Reality Tree, the Evaporating Cloud, the Future Reality Tree and the Prerequisite Tree.
Practical demonstration of how the Theory of Constraints (TOC) can help you to improve your business. Three identical bottles of water flowing at different rates. The challenge is to maximize the flow through your bottleneck and to do it in a spirit of calmness. The Oiled Wheels approach gives you both simultaneously.
This is the original video by Arrie van Niekerk R.I.P. There are unfortunately now lots of illegal copies of this great video.
The VAT factory types are the Theory Of Constraints’ powerful classification system of the different kinds of industrial manufacturing systems, they determine how plants should be analyzed and how they should be managed. The letters represent visually the Bill Of Materials but where the flow is from bottom to top (the opposite of most representations of flow). The V-Plant has very few different kinds of raw materials compared to the wide range of finished goods that it produces. These are often continuous or semi-continuous process industries. For example, in a steel plant, [...] The second type is the A-Plant. It is [...]
