According to the theory of constraints, the performance of any system is constrained by a few bottlenecks or limiting factors. These bottlenecks directly impact the organization's profitability because they limit the system's output, leading to reduced efficiency and effectiveness. Addressing these bottlenecks can lead to significant improvements in throughput, which in turn enhances profitability.

The IIA’s Practice Guide on Risk Management emphasizes understanding how various constraints within processes affect overall performance, including profitability. Bottlenecks are crucial factors that can either limit or boost profitability depending on how they are managed.
