About this Presentation
This presentation was facilitated by Eli Schragenheim. Behind each of the TOC applications there are several key basic assumptions. While those assumptions are valid in many situations, there are cases where they do not apply. Thus, the regular documented TOC solution should be modified. There are “natural” modifications required like setting buffer sizes, but in other cases the modifications call for adding and/or replacing injections. In this workshop, Mickey, in a conversation with Eli Schragenheim, will present several examples of a need to deviate from the prescribed solution, but still be in line with the key logic and insights that created the original solution, covering all negative-branches. The examples will cover Production, Projects and Replenishment and through them a pattern on how to identify a valid need to deviate from the solution and how to find the effective modified solution that still conforms to the basic insights. This webinar will include the presentation along with a Question and Answer session.
What Will You Learn
To help you get the most value from this session, we’ve highlighted a few key points. These takeaways capture the main ideas and practical insights from the presentation, making it easier for you to review, reflect, and apply what you’ve learned.
The Theory of Constraints (TOC) applications are based on several basic assumptions that are valid in many situations, but there are cases where they do not apply and the TOC solution should be modified.
It is important to validate the assumptions in the TOC process and not take them for granted. In cases where the assumptions are not valid, the TOC solution should be modified accordingly.
Avoid blaming the customer for not following instructions if the TOC solution is not working; instead, reevaluate the assumptions and modify the solution as needed.
