Manufacturing Expert Dr. Lisa Lang Discusses Theory of Constraints in The Fabricator
TOC goes against traditional manufacturing thinking, in which workers produce more than is needed to reduce the number of setups and maximize the efficiency of all resources. The forecast, after all, says these parts will be needed eventually, so why not produce them now? The problem is, of course, that sales forecasts are notoriously inaccurate, so those parts may never be needed. Also, producing so many unneeded parts floods the floor with work-in-process (WIP), while jobs in queue sit for days or weeks waiting for large batches to work their way through.
