Abstract
There is increasing pressure on implementing the low-cost strategy and quick delivery due to the cost-cuts incurred by the reduction of project scale, shortening of project duration, and offshore manufacturing. While the method based on PMBOK is regarded as the mainstream of project management, TOC-PM has thrust into the spotlight as "Critical Chain" by Dr.Goldratt has come into prominence. If TOC-PM is the magic wand to solve all the problems, rapid development in project management could be anticipated. However, there are cases of successful implementation oversea, yet no reported success could be found in our own backyard. In this article, the specific operation will be examined through actual implementation of TOC-PM and subsequent assessment in the pilot project with a goal of effective cut-down of cost and project duration.
