Bottleneck Identification

Bottleneck identification refers to the process of finding points in a system or process where flow is restricted, causing delays or inefficiencies. Think of it like a traffic jam on a highway: even if most cars are moving smoothly, a single narrow section can slow everyone down. In any operation—like manufacturing, project management, or software development—identifying these bottlenecks helps optimize performance, improve productivity, and reduce wait times. By addressing these key problem areas, organizations can streamline processes and enhance overall efficiency.
