Mastering Capacity Planning for Business Success

Companies are burning millions of dollars right now simply because they can't do math on their

supply and demand. This is capacity planning, and it is the secret backbone of every

successful business. It is not just about maximum output, it is about reality. You have Design

Capacity, which is your theoretical limit, and Effective Capacity, which accounts for

actual human stuff like lunch breaks and maintenance. If you do not balance this,

you are either paying for empty factories or turning away angry customers. Whether you build

a cushion for safety or outsource to cut costs, fixing your bottlenecks is the only way

to stop bleeding cash and actually scale.
