Part one above solves the first two steps of the TOC, to identify the constraint and determine the most profitable product mix. The third step, to maximize flow through the constraint, would require Colton to look for ways to speed up the staining operation, by simplifying it, by training the operator, or other means. In the fourth TOC step, Colton could consider adding a part time employee to add capacity at the constraint, though it might be difficult to find a skilled employee who wanted part time work. Adding a full time employee would be unnecessary and wasteful, unless the motel contract works out. In the final TOC step, Colton should consider the possibility of re-design, by for example using a different type of stain that requires less time and skill. Also, Colton should consider maintaining a small amount of product inventory so that the unmet demand of product, at times (as for tables in this case) can be sold from inventory.
