    Advancing Lean Construction and Innovation in the AECO industry | Magician 🎩🪄✨ | Board Member

    We had a great time visiting the Stanford Medicine Sutter Health Cancer Center project lead by The Boldt Company. This is a $400 million dollar IFOA project where the team is performing at a high level. We were fortunate enough to learn from Digby Christian, Ariana Alvear, Sean Franklin, Felipe Engineer-Manriquez, and Baris Lostuvali, DBIA™. If you are interested in visiting the project in order to see a real authentic lean project for yourself, please reach out to Baris or Felipe. We are happy to have more owners and the industry see lean for themselves and to see the true power of applying lean design and construction to improve both profitability and happiness of the people doing the work. If you are interested in more documentary type videos where we film "lean construction in the wild" and highlight the people doing the work, their daily lean practices, and results; please comment below with the term "Lean in the Wild Discovery Channel". If there is enough interest, we can get some sponsors and make this a more regular series. The videos are good to expose people who cannot visit the project but we really encourage people to visit the field trip and see it for themselves. To talk to the people who are applying lean in the wild whether it is a superintendent doing a daily huddle or a project manager applying LPS and takt. There is nothing like seeing people in their "natural habit" applying lean and see how the project benefits from it. Again the lean construction world is very collaborative, transparent, open to sharing, and learning. If you want to visit this or one of our 6 billion dollars worth of on-going design and construction projects, please reach out and we can help you have a fun learning experience. Learning and applying lean doesn't need to be boring. It can be fun. It can be enjoyable. It can be interactive with two way interaction with deep conversations, and learning. I hope to see you at one of our upcoming project tours. #leanconstruction

    You have the power to shape the culture around You.

    Designers! Trade Partners! Owners! I'd be failing all my friends out there if I didn't highlight for you the golden 🥇 opportunity to soak up some LPS goodness this week. Wednesday, in Oakland some extremely high performing colleagues of mine are sharing their experience with implementing Last Planner System on real-complex-construction projects. 🌋 I've seen with my very own eyes the magic these folks have been able to accomplish with the mindset and the tools they want to inspire you with. Real results, real savings, real good stuff. 👍

    A nostalgic look back: It has been almost 11 years since we launched vPlanner. At the time, we had Lachmi Khemlani from AECBytes visit one of the projects, and she wrote an article about it. Surprisingly, the article is still online at this link (https://lnkd.in/dmJ66xVR). As we get ready for our next major release of vPlanner, which will continue to raise the bar on how planning is done on projects, we thought it would be appropriate to take a quick look back at how we started. Enjoy!
