"I want to focus on my work and achieve results" and "I want to improve my operations"… While wishing for these, are you not being drained of time and energy by "human relationships" such as preparing materials, explaining, and persuading stakeholders, rather than the work itself? As a consulting company supporting the design, manufacturing, and management sectors of the manufacturing industry, we have encountered many individuals who, despite having excellent expertise, are exhausted from communication and consensus-building with both internal and external parties, preventing them from concentrating on their core duties. This is a common concern across various industries and job types. To unleash your true potential, it is essential to have not only expertise but also the skill of "consensus-building" to align perceptions with stakeholders and move forward together. In this seminar, we will explain how to create the TOC Thinking Process conflict resolution framework "UDE Cloud," incorporating experiential learning. By using the UDE Cloud, you can articulate and structure the dilemmas behind problems, revealing potential solutions with those who seemed like "incomprehensible adversaries." Those who are unfamiliar with TOC or the TOC Thinking Process, as well as those who have only experienced creating a cloud, are welcome. If you want to effectively advance consensus-building with those around you and improve your organization, please join us!

Amid the strict demands of small-lot production and QCD (Quality, Cost, Delivery), many manufacturing sites operate in daily chaos. Production management is swayed by uncertain delivery forecasts, and the workforce copes with frequent changeovers and overtime. There are not a few factory managers who are troubled by the feeling that "we are improving lead times, but not seeing results." The solution to such challenges lies in the Theory of Constraints (TOC), known from the bestselling novel "The Goal," and its flow improvement method "DBR." Since its publication, the factory environment has changed, but by applying DBR to fit the current environment, significant results in overcoming chaos can still be expected. In this seminar, we will clearly explain the basic concepts of DBR and practical methods based on the achievements of Goal System Consulting, aimed at beginners. Anyone interested in improving production lines, including factory executives, managers, and production management personnel, is encouraged to watch. ▼For more details, click here https://www.goal-consulting.com/seminar/free-seminar/dbr-260724.html?utm_source=ipros&utm_medium=description&utm_campaign=260724_DBR

In manufacturing environments where standard products and make-to-order products are handled in the same factory, the determination of priorities becomes complex, often leading to confusion in the production flow and extended lead times. In this seminar, we will explain DBM (Dynamic Buffer Management) / MTA, a solution for forecast production based on the principles of TOC (Theory of Constraints), known from "The Goal." Furthermore, we will introduce a TOC-based approach to improve flow through simple prioritization in response to the common challenge of "mixing forecast production and make-to-order production" faced by many factories, incorporating actual case studies. This free online seminar is recommended for those struggling with the mixing of standard and custom products, those looking to improve production management and manufacturing environments, and those who want to learn the basics of TOC. ■ June 22, 2026 (Monday) 16:00 - 17:00 ■ Online (Zoom) Free participation

The Theory of Constraints (TOC), known for the novel "The Goal," introduces CCPM (Critical Chain Project Management) in its sequel "Critical Chain." CCPM is a practical management method that has successfully reorganized chaotic projects, improving on-time delivery rates and reducing lead times. By focusing on the "remaining time until completion" rather than the progress rate, it allows for early detection of signs of delay, enabling accurate decision-making and swift countermeasures. However, many workplaces face challenges such as "not being able to stick to plans," "meetings only increasing without improving the situation," and "relying on the efforts of individuals." CCPM addresses these structural issues and improves the flow of projects themselves. This seminar will systematically explain the overall picture of CCPM and key execution points in 90 minutes. It will also touch on common pitfalls and misunderstandings during implementation, providing concrete methods to achieve results in the field. If you want to fundamentally reassess project management and build a stable system that consistently delivers results, please join us!

In manufacturing sites, changes in plans and adjustments to delivery dates occur frequently, often leaving the production management department overwhelmed with on-site responses. This seminar will provide a foundational explanation of "SDBR (Simplified Drum Buffer Rope)," developed based on the principles of TOC (Theory of Constraints), known from "The Goal." SDBR visualizes orders in three colors according to delivery dates, allowing for intuitive sharing of priorities and facilitating smooth collaboration between production management and the manufacturing site. We will introduce "just-right management" that leads to improved delivery compliance rates, reduced lead times, and enhanced production flow, along with applicable case studies. This is a free online seminar recommended for beginners in TOC. ■ May 25, 2026 (Monday) 16:00 - 17:00 ■ Online (Zoom) Free participation

What is the real reason behind the delays in development, even when elite teams are assembled for product development, material development, and production technology? Even with a team of elite designers and engineers, development is delayed, and revisions are repeated—the root cause lies in "over-determining the design policy in the early stages." In this seminar, we will introduce "Set-Based Concurrent Development," a core method of lean product development, as a prescription specifically tailored for the electronic components and devices industry. We will explain this approach, which narrows down multiple alternatives in parallel, based on actual cases that achieved both reduced revisions and shortened development lead times. If you are a development manager or leader struggling with the feeling that "increasing meetings doesn't change anything," we invite you to participate. ■ April 24, 2026 (Friday) 16:00 - 17:00 ■ Online (Zoom) Free participation

**Three Questions We Will Address This Time** 1. I don't know where the bottleneck is. 2. I don't know how to deal with the bottleneck stopping its operation. 3. The amount that can be produced is determined by the bottleneck, but I don't know what to do about it. In this seminar, we will not provide a basic explanation of "TOC (Theory of Constraints)." Tsuyoshi Ogasawara, who has 10 years of practical experience in manufacturing and 20 years as a TOC consultant, will focus on the questions he has repeatedly encountered in consulting settings. Based on his practical experience supporting numerous manufacturing industries with different environments and business types, he will explain how to think and take action regarding three typical questions surrounding "bottlenecks (constraints)" in a Q&A format. If you are a leader or manager in manufacturing, SCM, production technology, production management, or reform departments, and you are thinking, "In 2026, I want to push forward essential organizational reform and improvement without being distracted by the chaos in front of me. To do this, I want to identify and thoroughly utilize my organization's 'bottleneck (constraint),'” then please take 30 minutes during lunch to resolve your questions and accelerate the momentum for reform!

In a factory with a variety of products in small quantities, "things are not progressing as planned" — the cause lies in managing it with the same mindset as mass-produced items. By taking a "zoom-out" perspective from TOC (Theory of Constraints), we will fundamentally reassess the production system. An online seminar with real case studies effective for production management in processing and assembly types such as aerospace and machinery.

For product development engineers, a "project schedule" is essential for promoting projects and is something they are accustomed to creating. However, the reality is often just placing the given deadlines on paper. Although it is created for reporting purposes, there is no forecast for resource allocation, and while starting the project with the inner thought, "There’s no way we can meet this schedule," the burden of planning changes only increases, and deadlines tend to be delayed. I often hear from those in the field who are fed up with this situation. In this seminar, we will discuss how to break free from such schedule creation and develop practical schedules that make engineers feel positive, thinking, "This is achievable! I want to accomplish this with this schedule!" We will cover everything from the mindset to specific strategies, based on successful case studies. Wouldn't you like to start a development theme along with a project schedule that everyone can rally around and aim for during the kickoff? In the development sites of several companies we will introduce, such changes are actually happening and spreading. If you feel that "it's impossible to create a reliable project schedule for product development" or if you are thinking "I want to lead product development projects in a better state than now," please check the related links for more details!
