Most organizations face a market constraint and TOC practices should focus on this. The goal of the system should be to increase shareholders' value, measured by the discounted cash flow.
Marketing and sales people, as well as research and development systems, are always bottlenecks in most organizations.
Exploitation of the market constraint can be achieved by working on efficiency and effectiveness, and focusing on existing customers and markets. Subordination involves building a customer-oriented organization and subordinating the system to marketing and sales.
