The Theory of Constraints and Drum–Buffer–Rope Drum – Buffer – Rope (DBR) is an operations scheduling methodology based on Dr Eli Goldratt’s Theory of Constraints (TOC) and first written about in The Goal and further explained in The Race.

These constraints prevent the enterprise from delivering its optimal performance and thereby failing to reach the designated goals. This is
