What is Understanding Theory of Constraints about?
The document discusses the application of Theory of Constraints (TOC) principles at the Marine Corps Maintenance Center to improve operations. TOC was used to identify that the perceived capacity constraints were actually due to problematic scheduling policies, not physical resource limitations. Implementing a pull-based scheduling system using Simplified Drum-Buffer-Rope techniques revealed hidden capacity. As a result, the Center is now able to meet 99% of production demands on schedule.
