Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) is a powerful project management method designed to eliminate delays, optimize resources, and ensure projects are delivered on time, within budget, and without compromising quality.
Developed in the 1990s by Dr. Eliyahu Goldratt, CCPM is based on the Theory of Constraints (TOC)—a groundbreaking management approach that identifies and addresses the key bottlenecks limiting organizational performance.
Instead of relying on traditional project scheduling methods that often lead to missed deadlines and resource conflicts, CCPM focuses on:
✔ Prioritizing critical tasks to eliminate unnecessary delays
✔ Optimizing resources for faster execution
✔ Managing buffers effectively to absorb uncertainties
As a beginner in Critical Chain, the conference was an excellent start to my knowledge base.

Junior PM
Dr Eliyahu Goldratt is the author of Critical Chain and the inventor of the Theory of Constraints (TOC), a management philosophy and methodology that is used to improve the performance of organizations by identifying and addressing the key constraints that are limiting the organization's ability to achieve its goals. The TOC body of knowledge includes a range of concepts, tools, and techniques that are used to identify, analyze, and improve the performance of organizational systems. Today TOC has developed into a comprehensive collection of methods that are used to manage a wide range of systems and operations of all scales – from personal development, to global multinationals, and governments. One of the key tools and techniques used in TOC includes Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM), a method developed in the 1990’s for managing projects and resources. After years of development and testing, Goldratt publicized the Critical Chain method in his book – Critical Chain – in 1997. Critical Chain is often abbreviated to CC, or CCPM (Critical Chain Project Management).
