I had always wondered how it would be to start a business and develop all of the systems needed to run it efficiently. Most of us start in a business that has already been operating and has gradually built up its systems. The most we do is to implement a new computer system which causes us to change some of the administration procedures.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><em>With the implementation of TOC, I have now experienced what it is like to redesign literally all of the systems needed across the company, right down to the fundamental way in which we measure our output. It is interesting to be asked to reflect on such a massive business transformation. For us, TOC is even better in hindsight than when we embarked on the project.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><em>We were about to turn on a new ERP system, we had spent a fortune on it, and it was state of the art \u2013 the best system we could buy, but it was a planning system and we couldn\u2019t understand how we could get it to work in an environment as variable as our factory. We had all the problems of breakdowns, absenteeism, running out of materials, all of the things that trip up the rigid plan that our ERP system would produce. The drum, buffer, rope theory of TOC was our saviour. It recognised and helped us manage the variability and focused us where we needed to focus. Its implementation is one of those hindsight things that seem even better as you reflect them.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><em>As we talked with ViAGO about other implementations of TOC that they had done, they often talked of people faltering six months or a year in. I was confident that we would be able to avoid this. Unfortunately, my confidence was misplaced. Our implementation was so successful that we got stuck on the measures and the systems we had put in place. In solving our problems, we had moved on from the need for some of those measures, but we couldn\u2019t let them go.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><em>It was after a day of stimulation by the ViAGO team that we recognised and resolved to solve this dilemma. Interestingly the dropping of some measures and the development of others was like another adrenalin injection into our business. This makes me suspect that we will never stop our implementation; we will always be changing, always developing. It is just the start of a journey that is giving us the ability to continually raise our aspirations. What did these mean for us in numbers? A 20% lift in output and sales this year, in what is considered a mature business.
