The theory of constraints (TOC) was developed by Goldratt in the late 1970s. Over the past years, applications of TOC have been discussed in different business areas such as production, distribution, project management, performance measurement, supply chain management and so on. Presenting the evolution of TOC, we review the applications of TOC in supply chain management and suggest some ideas for related future research.
