최근 미국의 제조업체들이 경이적인 실적을 올리고 있는 배경에는 ”TOC”나 ”Constraints Management”가 커다란 역할을 수행하고 있다.

TOC란 “Theory Of Constraints”의 약어로서「制約 조건의 理論」이라고 하며, 「Scheduling Method」와「思考 Process」등의 구체적 방법론을 구사하여 기업 전체의 最適化를 실현하는 경영 개혁 Method이다.

실제 적용 사례로는 보잉이나 FORD, GM 등 많은 기업에서 획기적인 성과를 올려 최근 주목받고 있는 SCM(Supply Chain Management)의 구체적 방법론으로서 소개되고 있다.

이하 적용 사례 및 그 내용을 참고할 수 있도록 해외 Site들을 소개한다.
