Publisher's Summary
Sam Brooks, a young superintendent with ProCon Builders, has been given responsibility for the largest and most complicated project of his career. He struggles with all of the common difficulties in construction - lack of communication, coordination issues, and other kinds of wasteful occurrences that rob his project of time and money, while leaving him and his team frustrated and overworked.
Luckily, his friend, mentor, and co-worker, Alan Phillips, brings the benefit of his experience and his knowledge of Lean Construction tools and processes to help Sam learn valuable skills for improving the operation of his project.
Together, Sam and Alan discuss the merits and explore the practical applications of:
- Daily huddles
- Visual communication
- The “eight wastes”
- Managing constraints
- Pull planning
- The last planner system
- Percent plan complete
