Do you want a proven method to improve? The OCD 5-Step Process is your guide.

Identify, exploit, subordinate, elevate and repeat. These are the 5 OCD steps for managing restrictions. Ensures that your bottleneck is always working at maximum capacity.

Key Points

  • 1. IDENTIFY the system restriction 🔍
  • 2. EXPLODE its maximum capacity 💪
  • 3. SUBORDINATE everything to the bottleneck ⚙️
  • 4. RAISE the restriction 📈
  • 5. REPEAT the process 🔄

Practical Example: A plastics company identified its extruder as a restriction. First you maximized its use (explode), then you scheduled everything around it (subordinate), then you added predictive maintenance (elevate). Production increased 45% in 4 months.

Reflection: Are you ready to apply the 5 steps of OCD?
