Abstract
The underlying assumption of Theory of Constraint (TOC) is that the performance of a system constraint will determine the performance of the organization. A constraint is anything that limits or prevents higher system performance relative to the goal. The constraint is the weakest link in the chain. A Five Focusing Steps methodology is used to identify an eliminate constraints of an organization as well as being a tool for continuously improvement in the organization. Primarily we would find TOC and Constraint Management applied in manufacturing and scheduling where the speed of a constraint sets the pace of a process in a production line. However TOC was extended to apply an execution of a project as well.
