About this Presentation
This presentation describes the situation of implementing the project management strategy and tactics tree in a Viable Vision company. It was noted that a gap existed between what was done and the steps in level 5 of the tree. Some elements are missing and others require modification. For a TOC implementation to be successful the first actions must result in immediate substantial benefits therefore the first action should be to freeze projects to reduce bad multitasking. The sequence of changes in critical chain are presented and described. Virtual drum, full kitting, staggering, integration, and buffer management are discussed.
