Companies that excel at on-time delivery, short cycle/leadtime, quality, and fa st response to the market gain a competitive edge - and have the abili ty to market based on these features. A proven approach to achieve th is is the Theory of Constraints (TOC) production solution known, as dr um-buffer-rope scheduling. Just in time (JIT), Total Quality Managemen t (TQM) and other philosophies aim at exploiting these competitive edg e factors. However, accounting...
