Theory of Constraints: A systematic review from the management context

The investigations began with the drum-buffer-rope architecture, as the basis of the Theory of Constraints (TOC). Currently, TOC has been applied in various business sectors. With the support of mathematical models and simulation, it has been possible to optimize the productive processes. The objective of this study was to determine the investigative tendencies of the TOC in the different productive sectors and its application in business management environments. The results establish that its application increases the efficiency of the process.
