- Abstract
The article focuses on the implementation of the 6TOC method for improving operational process and productivity in an industry, which involves Six Sigma quality control, lean manufacturing and the theory of constraints (TOC). It presents a case study involving the application of the 6TOC improvement method to a mid-southern U.S. mining organization with high capital investment. It also discusses a 10-step implementation plan of 6TOC based on Eliyahu Goldratt's chain project management process.
