Certified Pro Productivity Professional (Throughput, WIP & TOC)
The Certified Pro Productivity Professional (Throughput, WIP & TOC) program equips operations, manufacturing, and supply chain professionals with advanced productivity skills rooted in Theory of Constraints (TOC), flow optimization, and work-in-process (WIP) control. Delivered by BGMC and accredited by Council for Six Sigma Certification (CSSC), this program focuses on removing system constraints, increasing throughput, and achieving sustainable operational performance.
Why Throughput, WIP & TOC Matter ?
Throughput, WIP & TOC

- Local optimization vs global performance
- Financial impact of throughput-based decisions
2. Theory of Constraints (TOC) Fundamentals
- The Five Focusing Steps
- Identifying and managing constraints
- Physical vs policy constraints
- Constraint exploitation and elevation strategies
3. Throughput & Flow Management
