1. “Lean Project Delivery in Practice ”
16 July, 2018
Radisson Blu Temple Bay Resort Hotel Complex, Chennai, India
The Program
Lean Project Delivery (LPD) aims to align and connect the understanding among different individuals across different spatial and temporal dimensions to get a structure built that meets the needs of and delivers value to the client, per established standards / specifications and/or as mutually agreed upon, correctly the first time through, with the requirement of continually improving and respect for what people have to offer.
This one-day, instructor-led workshop explains the concepts of Lean in the design and construction process, and the unique integrated contracting approach commonly used with LPD projects. The participants are introduced to Lean Design principles and its various Lean tools used in design with examples. The process of Target Value Design is explored using a hands-on simulation. The difference between transactional and relational contracts, and structuring of the supply chain is also discussed.
The workshop uses a detailed account of what it took to coach a team of designers and contractors through a $15 million LPD process. The project
involved a Dining Center renovation at a large public university in the United States. This was the first publicly funded lPD-enabled Lean Construction project in the United States, which also achieved a gold-level LEED (green rating) certification.
