  2. Theory of constraints - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_constraints

    The theory of constraints (TOC) is a management paradigm that views any manageable system as being limited in achieving more of its goals by a very small number of constraints. There is always at least one constraint, and TOC uses a focusing process to identify the constraint and restructure the rest of the organization around it.

  3. Theory of Constraints in streamline manufacturing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_Constraints_in...

    Theory of constraints (TOC) is an engineering management technique used to evaluate a manageable procedure, identifying the largest constraint (bottleneck) and strategizing to reduce task time and maximise profit. It assists in determining what to change, when to change it, and how to cause the change.

  4. Material requirements planning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_requirements_planning

    The methodology is applied differently in each environments but the five step process remains the same. DDMRP leverages knowledge from theory of constraints (TOC), traditional MRP & DRP, Six Sigma and lean. It is effectively an amalgam of MRP for planning, and kanban techniques for execution (across multi-echelon supply chains) which means that ...

  5. Project management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_management

    Project management is the process of supervising the work of a team to achieve all project goals within the given constraints. [1] This information is usually described in project documentation, created at the beginning of the development process.

  6. Theory of Change - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_change

    A theory of change (ToC) is an explicit theory of how and why it is thought that a social policy or program activities lead to outcomes and impacts. [1] ToCs are used in the design of programs and program evaluation, across a range of policy areas. Theories of change can be developed at any stage of a program, depending on the intended use.

  7. Current reality tree (theory of constraints) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_reality_tree...

    elaborating the reasoning to ensure it is sound and plausible. For example, "if the air intake is full of water then air conditioning is not working." Elaboration (because air is not able to circulate) gets added as in-between step. linking each of the remaining UDEs to the existing tree by repeating the previous steps.

  8. Construction management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Construction_management

    There are traditionally two contracts between these parties as they work together to plan, design and construct the project. [12] The first contract is the owner-designer contract, which involves planning, design, and construction contract administration. The second contract is the owner-contractor contract, which involves construction.

  9. Project delivery method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_delivery_method

    In Design-Build, an owner develops a conceptual plan for a project, then solicits bids from joint ventures of architects and/or engineer and builders for the design and construction of the project. This is an alternative to the traditional model for public infrastructure projects that does not involve Private Financing.
