In the theory of constraints and throughput accounting, which of the following methods may be used to elevate the performance of a binding constraint?
(Method 1) Acquire more of the resource that is the binding constraint
(Method 2) Improve the efficiency of usage of the resource that is the binding constraint
The aim should be to improve the output capacity of the binding constraint. This can be done by achieving more output per unit of binding resource (improving efficiency) or obtaining more of the resource that is the binding constraint.
By increasing output through the binding constraint, a point will eventually be reached where it ceases to be the binding constraint, and another resource becomes the binding constraint.
