2014 TOC
International Conference breaks new ground in Government and Healthcare
Today
the TOCICO (Theory of Constraints International Certification Organization)
announced that in addition to the workshops, case studies and presentations
covering the well-known applications of TOC in Industry, two tracks will be
dedicated to the breakthrough solutions that have been implemented in the
government and healthcare sectors. The conference runs from June 8-11, 2014 in
Washington DC.
The
Theory of Constraints (TOC) provides a set of holistic processes and rules, all
based on a systems approach that exploits the inherent simplicity within
complex systems through focusing on a few “leverage points” as a way to
synchronize the parts to achieve ongoing improvement in the performance of the
system as a whole.
The opening day’s keynote; Improving
Global Healthcare with the Theory of Constraints, will be presented by Alex
Knight a
founding partner of QFI Consulting and a leading TOC practitioner in the world
in the healthcare field. This keynote will feature the application and results
of applying TOC to Improving Global Healthcare. Alex will follow his address by
facilitating a dedicated track focusing on TOC applications in healthcare.
There is also an additional full day of healthcare sector presentations.
Healthcare
organizations across the globe struggle daily with the ever-increasing need to
provide timely and high-quality care for their patients within an affordable envelope.
The reality is that medical costs are rising at a faster rate than
revenue, which is making it increasingly difficult to achieve this need. As the
problem intensifies, compromises between care and financial necessity will be
an inevitable consequence.
The TOC
implementations presented at the conference show how the solutions to this
problem can be found to simultaneously:
1.
Deliver an effective and sustainable healthcare system;
2.
Enable medics and managers to give the most appropriate medical treatment to
all their patients;
3.
Achieve a true breakthrough in performance without demanding additional
resources;
4.
Avoid putting excessive demands on a number of already stretched resources;
and achieve sustained and ongoing
operational and financial improvement.
Day two’s keynote: Enterprise TOC
Implementation in Utah State Government will be presented by Kristen Cox, Executive Director
of the Utah Governor’s Office of Management and Budget (GOMB) and will be
followed by a dedicated track of three workshops that will focus on better,
faster and cheaper services.
Though
they are very different, public and private organizations across the globe
share a common challenge- increasing pressure to achieve more with less. The reality is that government costs are
rising and resources are limited, which is making it increasingly difficult to
meet the challenge.
The TOC
implementations presented at the conference show how the solutions to this
problem can be found to simultaneously:
1. Do it better –meet the ongoing demand
for services with a high degree of quality
2. Do it faster-increase the flow of work
within systems
3. Do it cheaper-reduce avoidable costs
& investment, giving more flexibility to the budget process -
the constraint for the government to do
more good
Day three’s keynote addresses The
Right Rule + the Right Tools = Smart Metrics, will be presented by Debra Smith the cofounder of
Constraints Management Group LLC, and an internationally recognized authority
on management and accounting including the development and articulation of smart
metrics. Ms. Smith is a noted speaker on the Theory of Constraints and will
also facilitate a workshop on Smart Metrics during the conference.
Day three’s Plenary Session
address; CCPM 2.0: Simpler, Better, Scalable, features Sanjeev Gupta a leading expert in
TOC-Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) and the founder of two companies
that provide TOC solutions; Thru-Put Technologies and Realization Technologies.
Day four’s keynote address;
Delivering Value - Removing Business Constraints for Growth is presented by
Rami Goldratt.
Mr. Goldratt is the CEO of Goldratt Consulting and is recognized worldwide as an
authority on the Theory of Constraints. Rami worked with his father Dr Eliyahu
Goldratt in developing the TOC Insights, a self-learning product for TOC
applications.
The
conference provides a unique opportunity for people new to TOC to learn from
the top TOC experts in the world. The
conference includes 4 days consisting of the fundamentals of TOC and the
application of those fundamentals to a variety of industries in over 70
different sessions.
