Bottlenecks: Goldratt's theory

Theory of Constraints developed from its “Program Optimization of Production.” The starting point of the whole analysis is that the goal is to make money, and to do so is necessary to increase the throughput, but as this is limited by bottlenecks, E. Goldratt focuses its attention on them, giving rise to its "OPT" resulting in "The Theory of Constraints. The reason in the scheme of E. Goldratt is very simple: raise inventories, raising the costs of operation and throughput remains constant, the exact opposite of what was defined as a goal. E. Goldratt argues that everyone ...
