Develop team focus in the improvement is not included in the five steps to improve performance. The theory of constraints uses five steps to improve performance: 1) Identify the current constraint, 2) Exploit quick improvements to the throughput of the constraint using existing resources, 3) Review all other activities in the process to ensure that they are aligned with and support the needs of the constraint, 4) Elevate if the constraint still exists to consider what further actions can be taken to eliminate it, and5) Repeat the process.
