About this Presentation
The potential of TOC advocates to the world is amazing! Likewise, it is amazing how underappreciated such experts are by the business community at large. What if we TOC experts could better ensure that companies benefit from TOC and, at the same time, completely eliminate the resistance we so often encounter from clients or our own companies? We can do both, through TOC Services. A worldwide TOC consulting community has sprung up to serve a market that isn‚t ready. Let‚s give them the outcomes we dream of and that they can.

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 TOC community has evolved from implementing drum buffer rope to holistic implementations, which continue even if the internal constraint is broken.
Most companies are still not aware of TOC, thus it remains a competitive differentiator.
The speaker presents ESP Plus, a service that takes over a company's raw material supply chain and runs it the TOC way, potentially doubling a company's profits.

Henry Fitzhugh Camp
Henry F. Camp - After earning a BA in Mathematics at the University ofVirginia, Camp taught for several years before joining Shippers Solutions, where he designed and programmed his own ERP system to improve the company’s operational effectiveness. After five years, he bought the
company and still owns it, having grown sales tenfold. www.ssco.pro A $4 billion customer implored Henry to manage their $70 million raw material inventories in 4 different countries. New software was created and deployed. Within months, five warehouses in four countries all demonstrated 6σ inventory accuracy. More importantly, the client’s shortages disappeared, which had previously delayed a third of planned production schedules. Added benefit: inventory needed dropped 70%.This spin off became IDEA, LLC, of which Mr. Camp owned the majority,
until it was sold in 2022.
IDEA expanded scope, delivering supply chain consulting using replenishment software based on constraints theory. In the early 2000’s, Henry formed a personal relationship with Eli Goldratt author of The Goal. A major client was adidas, who used IDEA’s Elucidate software to double their same-store sales without increased inventory or expense. He collaborated with Bahadir Inozu at Turkish Technic, Turkish Airline’s internal MRO group. Camp gained recognition as a worldwide authority in supply chains.
Henry shifted to buying companies instead of consulting. He raised money in the early 2010s to establish TOC Equity Partners which acquired and substantially improved three companies, using TOC and his operational expertise. These acquisitions have either been sold or are being positioned for sale at dramatic profits. With constraints theory experts Eli Schragenheim and Rocco Surace, he published his second book in 2019 titled Throughput Economics. The book expands TOC Throughput Accounting, showing how to apply a simple holistic approach in many different business cases. Throughput Economics helps companies improve quickly and significantly. As its ideas are more broadly adopted, future difficult economic shifts will be made easier, enhancing the world economy. He is currently the Manager of The Aviation Protection Group, which will support commercial airlines, as passenger traffic returns to normal, post-coronavirus pandemic.
