Execution and Control
1. Theory of Constraint
types of constraints
throughput-based constraint:
market constraint (demand < supply)
resource constraint (demand > supply)
capacity-constrained resource (CCR): a resource that is not a constraint but will become a constraint unless scheduled carefully.

-
drum-buffer-rope (DBR)
drum: set the pace per the constraint rate, reconciling the customer requirements with the system's constraints.
(at the constraint operation)
buffer: keep the constraint area in use (could be time, material, support throughput and/ or due date performance)
constraint buffer: the total processing time from when raw materials are released to the gateway operation until they reach the constraint.
assembly buffer: duration from the release of raw materials to a process not passing through the constraint but will eventually be combined with materials that did pass through the constraint.
shipping buffer: duration from when materials exit the constraint until they reach the shipping location.
rope: pull materials into production, maintaining the pace and buffers (rope pulls from the constraint operation to entry of materials used at the gateway operation)
five focusing steps
- identify the constraint
- exploit the constraint
- subordinate everything else to the constraint
- elevate the constraint (increase the capacity of constraint)
- once the constraint is relieved, identify the new constraint
2. Production Activity Control (PAC)
objectives:
- execute the orders authorized
- optimize the use of resources
- ensure the availability of these resources when they are needed
- provide information on work-in-process inventories
- maintain customer service at the targeted level
