DEFINITION

What Do Constraints Mean?

The definition of constraints refers to factors that limit a system, process or activity.

They include type constraints like online dictionaries and typing constraint; key constraints which can have an impact on sales and investment of time in the process; active constraints related to period of time, resources (critical resource), strategic decision-making etc.; as well as levels/kinds of constraint for example hard vs soft ones.

Examples could be investing too much money into marketing campaigns with no return on it or not having enough staff during peak times - both leading to lost opportunities from potential customers who leave because they don't want to wait around.

Different applications use different kinds & level of constrains according their needs but all should consider their impacts carefully before implementation.
