Lean Construction Institute
Stan Chiu - RTKL
Julie Dobyns - DPR Construction
Dennis Sowards - LCI
Workshop ObjectivesAt the end of this session you will be
able to: Explain the background, benefits and
principles of Lean thinking Understand how Lean techniques and
tools work Learn how Lean thinking has been
used in Construction Identify which Lean techniques apply
to your operations
Think Lean!
How do we bid a job today?
Estimate theCosts $$
Profit margin
+ = Bid Price
The Lean way to bid a job:
MarketPrice
- Profit margin
= Cost to dothe Job
Is this Possible?
Why Lean?
Where Would You Cut?
Direct costs Labor 60%Materials 25%Equipment 6%Sub Contractors 7%Indirect Costs 2%
What would be the possibilities if you could reduce your Cost of Goods sold (Direct Operating Costs) by 15%?
Why Lean?
Lean Companies have seen improvements: Manufacturing Lead Time - less than 1 day Delivered Quality – 3 PPM Delivery Performance – 99+% Inventory Turns – Greater than 50 turns per year Manufacturing space - reduced 35 to 50% New product development – less than 6 months

Customer Expectations
General Motors is challenging the industry to develop, embrace and implement Lean Principles:
•Expect construction firms to be proactive in applying Lean Concepts
SMWIA/ SMACNA - 2006 Partners in Progress Conference
Sutter Health Capital Program
The Executive Challenge:
Successfully execute the design and construction of resultant $5.5B program using Lean Project Delivery Methods
Construction Users Roundtable (CURT) says:Education is key;
There needs to be a shift in everyone’s way of thinking;
LEAN targets the best workforce, forms solid relationships and builds trust;
Owner’s must be the agents of change and must demand change; and
LEAN must become the new culture of the industry.

Lean Thinking is a concept of Continuous Quality Improvement
Lean Thinking is a shift in management's focus to differentiate between Value and WasteAKA: JIT & Toyota Production System (TPS)

Lean in the Construction Industry: Three Connected Opportunities
1. IMPECCABLE COORDINATIONWORKFLOW BASED OPERATING SYSTEM
2. ORGANIZING PROJECTS AS PRODUCTION SYSTEMS
3. THE PROJECT AS A COLLECTIVE ENTERPRISE.
© Lean Construction Institute, 2009
What the customer is actually willing to PAY for (USEFULNESS/COST)
Includes Functions, Features, Time & Price
Relates to the whole product or service received
Is the opposite of WASTE.
What is Value?
7 Basic Types of Waste (Muda) Defects in products: Rework, Field orders & Punch Lists Overproduction: Fabricating material or ordering it too soon, JIC
thinking. Ordering extra material because of poor quality or fit Inventory: Material stored at site or yard, work in process,
unused tools & parts, forms and stashes Unnecessary processing: Double & triple estimates from
suppliers, redundant or unnecessary reporting, multi signatures on forms, material requisitions or time sheets, any non-value added steps
Unnecessary movement of people: Treasure hunts, looking for files, drawings and poor layout of work area (ergonomics) Movement Not = WORK!
Transport of goods: moving material, tools or parts, handing off work between crews
Waiting: Crews waiting for equipment, plans, RFI’s, field orders, or material, payroll waiting for time sheets, equipment waiting to fabricate material
What wastes have you seen today?
What Lean is NOT!
A smoke screen for downsizing
BIM
A big capital or systems investment Don’t focus on the improvements that cost a lot - focus on the many improvements that don’t cost a lot!
Some tools
Something you do to your employees
The pace of improvement is directly related to the square of the number of employees participating.

Look at Value Added & Non-Value Added Time
VALUE NON VALUE ADDED ADDED
TOTAL TIME
Typically Value added time is about 3% of the Total Time! (Yet we tend to focus our improvement efforts on the value added steps.)
Value Stream Analysis
Sign & date cards
Flow Exercise
Value of Flow: Faster + Improves Quality + Surfaces Problems - so can solve them!
Means no one upstream should produce a good or service until the customer downstream asks for it. Products and services are created only on demand.
PULL
Flow where you can - Pull if you must!
Pursue Perfection
What if there were no WASTE at all?
The paradox is that perfection can never be achieved,
but must be pursued.
Continuous Improvement
Operations vs. Processes

USEAUCTION
The 5 S'sSimplifying Steps:1.Review all frequently used items and put those used
most often closest to the work area, those used less often, further away.
2.Develop a way to label or show where everything goes. Consider:
· Shadow board· Marking the item and the location· Color-coding· Labels on drawers with list of contents inside
3. Develop ways to daily replace usable items· Establish lead times for replacement of daily usage supplies· Determine minimum and maximum supply levels and mark them
Sweeping ActionsSweeping is done when regular sweeping processes occur and
areas are clean, safe and neat.
Actions:· Determine regular schedule for cleaning the
yard, work & break areas.· Orient everyone including new employees with
daily 5S’s activity responsibilities and expectations.
· Post area cleaning guidelines and schedules.· Perform safety inspections on a regularly
schedule.
The 5 S's
STANDARDIZING
is creating standard ways to keep the work areas organized, clean and orderly and documenting agreements made during the 5S’s.
How to Standardize? Standardize:• Labeling• Tools & equipment• Forms• Gang boxes layout• Yard Layout• Trailers
• Have clear instructions for people who deliver goods or materials to the site. Clearly mark and post where the material, tools & equipment are to be placed.
How to create self-discipline:Self-discipline is done when:• The 5S’s rules for Sorting, Simplifying, Sweeping and
Standardizing are being followed.
• All changes have been documented.
• A daily 5S’s activity checklist is posted and used.
• The work area is being kept neat and clean & the Work Flows!
The 5 S's
Self Discipline often includes an Self Audit/ Score Card
Not Started Action# Checklist Area Done In Progress
1 Are work benches, trailers, gang boxes and the area free of unnecessary items and are items present used on at least a monthly basis?
2 Are walk areas unobstructed and marked?
3 Are lay down areas easily identified for material, mobile carts, tool boxes, lifts, etc.?
Do 30 second test!
Contractors doing 5S’s report: Freed up a space on both sides of the shop (3 foot
wide and the length of the shop) Reduced daily mobilization for trucks from 20 - 30
minutes to 5 minutes Returned $5,000 in materials Saved 90 field man-hours on one job by reducing
crew time getting ready for job An accounting department got rid of 18,000
duplicate copies of shop invoices freeing up file space and saving administrative time.
Reduced warehouse space by 40%

Lean in the Construction Industry: Three Connected Opportunities
1. IMPECCABLE COORDINATIONWORKFLOW BASED OPERATING SYSTEM
2. ORGANIZING PROJECTS AS PRODUCTION SYSTEMS
3. THE PROJECT AS A COLLECTIVE ENTERPRISE.
© Lean Construction Institute, 2009
Parade of Trades: Setting the stage1. The project has 35 units of work to be processed.
2. There are seven trades, each of which must process all 35 units of work in order for the project to complete.
3. The trades come onto the project a week apart.
4. The trades work in sequence, with each following trade able to work only on what was produced in the previous week by the prior trade.
5. Work is done by rolling a dye (singular of ‘dice’) and passing the number of units rolled—up to the number of units the trade has to work on.
6. The number rolled represents the number of workers brought to the site that week by the trade rolling the dye. Each worker is able to process one unit of work in the week.
Parade of TradesMove 35 units of work through 7 trades.Work is completed at the end of the week and passed to next trade. Place materials on table as shown.

Moving one chip through one station requires 1 “crew” work unit costing $1000. How much will it cost to complete the project? (Hint: 35 Units of work are required at each station and there are 7 stations.)
What would you bid – markup on labor?
A die has an average production of 3.5 units per roll (week). How long will it take?

As reduce workflow variability (more reliable)- Outcomes improve & risk goes down!
Question for Discussion
What would be the specific advantages of improved work flow reliability on your projects? For 10 minutes, discuss at table. Select a spokesperson to report.
• Reducing workflow variability– Improves total system performance– Makes project outcomes more predictable– Simplifies coordination– Reveals new opportunities for
improvement• Point speed and productivity of a single
operation doesn’t matter – throughput does.• Strategy: Reduce variation then go for
speed to increase throughput.
Key Points
Basis of Last Planner System
Which way will your crew be more productive:
Doing work as planned?
Doing unplanned work?
Research shows that on the average crews are doing the work they planned to do for the week - only 54% of the time.
Which type of work is your crew doing today?
Last Planner SystemStarting Point: All plans are forecasts and all forecasts
are wrong. The longer the forecast, the more wrong it is. The more detailed the forecast, the more wrong it is.
Plan in greater detail as you get closer to doing the work.
Produce plans collaboratively with those who will do the work.
Reveal and remove constraints on planned tasks as a team.
Make reliable promises. Declare and then learn from breakdowns.
* ©Lean Construction Institute, 2009
Activity Focus ignores value creation and the flow of work.– Collaboration in design is limited– Fails to produce predictable work flow
Command and Control planning cannot coordinate the arrival of the wherewithal or work of specialists.– Opportunities for trading ponies for horses are
lost– Push systems are commitment free zones.
Control begins with tracking cost and schedule.– Efforts to improve productivity leads to Unreliable
Work Flow further reducing project performance. – Protecting activities leads to adversarial relations.
Problems with Current Practice
Two Ways to Manage Projects:
Flexibility - throw resources at the project to overcome variation. (FPS)
OR
Lean - Manage variation through LPS and Shield crews from variation.
To get the construction to flow we must have reliability of the work performed.
Reliable work is that work which is done as promised allowing the next work assignment to be started as planned.
Control - A project is under control when we can do what we say we are going to do!

Phase “Pull” Planning
Pull Planning: Designing the Network of Commitments• Produces the best possible plan by involving the
team of people who manage the work in that phase.
• Rehearsing together – Aligns understanding, reveals unexpected
interactions, problems and value adding opportunities: Builds relationship.
– Assures that everyone in a phase understands and supports the plan by the working as a team.
– Assures the selection of value adding tasks that release other work by working backwards from the target completion date to produce a “pull” schedule.
– Establishes the amount of time available for ‘contingency’ and how it should be allocated.

Summary of LPS
Why Last Planner®?
• Without Last Planner®:– only half the tasks on weekly work plans
are completed as planned. – so called ‘project control’ is after-the-fact
identification of variances, not proactive steering toward objectives.
– projects are a commitment-free zone; promises are neither requested nor made.
(If you can’t say ‘no’, you can’t make a promise.)
The Last Planner System *
Construction Services Company in Business Since 1889.- $500 - 600 Million Project Completed Annually- Largest Constructor in Wisconsin and operates 7 regional offices
throughout the Midwest, Southeast and West.
Used Last Planner on over 200 Projects since 1999
• Shorter schedules, up to 20% reduction on some projects that really commit to the process
• Improved concrete productivity - up to 30%• Improved profitability due to shortened schedules(reduced
general conditions) and improved productivity – “a good amount of our work is negotiated GMP so we also see savings going back to the customer in the form of growing contingencies.”Source: Annual Lean Construction Congress (August 2000/2001)

A $60 million of upgrades to a functioning facility
Lean Construction Results
• Designs were 100% signed off by the users of the documents. They attribute this to making and keeping commitments.
• The project only had 63 RFIs. At the usual administrative costs of $600 per RFI they are incurring far lower costs> For a usual project of this type they would expect about 1,000 RFIs.
• Safety - had 1.45 ORR compared to Ind. Average of 5.9 ORR• They finished the project 45 days ahead of schedule• Unspent construction contingency was 2.1% of the
construction budget and was shared with owner and Lean partners.
• General Contractor ran job with half of normal staff for same type jobs
• A Preferred job site: morale was high; quality was high; no facility interruptions; subs made a fair profits; and they had fun!

Alberici Constructors & Lyon Sheet Metal Works
Dave Koester, BMW Senior Project Manager, on using Lean Production Management on the BP
ULSD Project
• “Every large industrial project in Northwest Indiana and the south suburbs of Chicago has been over budget and has missed schedule for the last 20 years. This method broke the cycle.”
• “We have been striving for employee involvement and empowerment; this method gave us a vehicle to achieve it.”
• “We now utilize the entire bodies of our field crews, not just from the neck down.”
• “If we didn’t use the method on this project, I would have been begging for mercy [from the owner] months ago.”

Kaizen Event - Burn table in welding and sheet metal shop. Already running two
shifts and were not keeping up with the workload demands. The team found ways to reduce the total cycle time (set up + burn + take down), allowing them to run more jobs. The actions they took included:
• Having an apprentice (burn buddy) clear off the table while the burn table operator encoded the next job.
• Having the burn buddy help stage all material so it was ready to be put on the table once it was prepared for the next job.
• Making the nozzles ready to change for the upcoming job.• Clearing off all unneeded scrap material near the table, giving
more walk space. • Moving some racks of specialty metal closer to the use area.• Putting tools needed at the table in an easy place to reach and
marking location for each tool.

Process Mapping/Analysis
Basic Lean Tools & Techniques
What you think your process looks like:
What the real process looks like:
What your Customer is willing to pay for (Value added)
Process Mapping/Value Analysis
Map the steps for a core process. Include all steps including ‘wait’ times
Do one product line at a time - rectangular straight/fittings
Measure distance traveled & cycle time
Categorize all steps into:
1) Value added
2) Non Value Added But Necessary
3) Non Value added & Not Necessary
Eliminate all #3’s and look for ways to improve #2’s by making the product flow; reduce set-up time & do 5S’s.
QuickTime™ and a decompressor

New Process - start with only value added steps (9 out of 200) - Only add back real “needed but non value added steps.
They reduced daily mobilization of trucks/vans in yard from 20 - 30 minutes to 5.

Possible Customer Groups 1. Joint Venture Speaking with the voice of the owner.
2. Core Group - Representing the goals of the program.
3. The element team.
4. An IPD team.
An A3 project administrator will be identified that manages the A3 log for all four teams. This will be Kim Ehresman from DPR
Each of the 4 teams will identify an A3 coordinator. H3 Coordinator: CMHH Coordinator: M. Jackson DPR Coordinator: K. Blume
Se ction 2 - Curre nt Condition The role of the team A3 coordinator is:
Until now, there was no documentated process for using A3s as a decision making tool. 1. Ensure that any team member authoring or collaborating on an A3 has been trained in the A3 thought process.
The process would need to address the following concerns: 2. The A3 coordinator will confirm that all interested parties are involved with each A3.
1. Each A3 needs to have a customer that will use the knowledge. Each A3 will include an assesment by the team of how the A3 issues impacts the CPR system values - Ranking will be -1, 0 or +1.
2. Each issue in A3 should be measured against the values of the project.
3. The A3 guidelines should facilitate an A3 mentoring program within this team. Se ction 5 - Unre solve d Issue s
4. Customers should use A3s to make knowledge based decisions. 1. What is the process to collapse the set or force rank on the set?
5. For A3s that compare design sets, attributes of the sets should be identified against which the proposals are compared. 2. Should the ranking of design options be different for each IPD team?
6. The A3 guidelines need to define the last responsible moment for a path forward.
7. An A3 can incorporate a single design option or multiple design options. However, A3s that evaluate similar or connected sets.
design issues should be grouped into design. The integration event for all A3s that are in the same set would occur at the same time.
Se ction 3 - Proposal Se ction 6 - Path Forward/Re comme ndations
1. The Core Group approves this process and makes it visible to the four teams.
3. An A3 process team should be identified that has the responsibility to “check” this process.
4. The A3 process team should survey the customers of developed A3s over the next three weeks to identify:
a. If the process is effective.
b. Identify opportunities to improve the process.

De te rmining a Path Forward for A3's on the CPR proje ct
The four IPD teams in this co-petition have made the commitment to use A3s to analyze issues that may shape the
design and/or construction of the healthcare facilities. To ensure that the A3s become a beneficial tool for informed
decision making and approvals, a process must be put in place that provides structure for how and when A3s are
developed. The process should ensure that all parties affected by an A3 are allowed to collaborate in the
development and path forward of the A3. The process must also clearly define the last responsible moment when a
decision of the path forward on an A3 should occur.
2. A revised A3 format with collaborator, sponsor, customer group and approval blocks is issued to the groups. The format on which this
A3 is written represents the revised A3 format.
A3 Status
1.
•Identify A 3 Issue.•Identify champion and colloberators that will develop the A 3.•Develop preliminary A 3 and set specific attributes that will facilitate comparison of multiple design sets.
2.
•Identify sponsor for the A 3. •Sponsor must be an Element L ead or Core Group Member.•Sponsor confirms A 3 concept has applicability to the program.•Sponsor confirms A 3 team has a Joint V enture member.
3.
•Identify Customer Group - Sponsor makes a request for a group to become the customer of the A 3.•Customer accepts request to become the customer and identified responsible person for the A 3.•Customer determines path forward process for the A 3 issue.
4.
•L og A 3 into Set Based A 3 L og.•Items with customers are logged with A 3 number and preliminary values assessment.•Items without customers are logged without an A 3 number.•Issues are grouped by discipline and design set.
5.
•Invite A dditional Collobrators & Conversations.•Draft A 3 posted on Webex and on co - location "New A 3" wall.•Invitation is issued electronically and visually for all interested parties to collaborate on the A 3.
6.
•Develop A 3. •Champion & Colloborators continue to develop A 3 knowledge as required to support a path forward.•Customer develops pull schedule to determine last responsible moment for path forward.
7.•Identify Integration Event at which a path forward will be decided by the customer.•Customer pushes A 3 to a path forward which is communicated to the 4 teams.
• Decisions must be made based up on the importance of advantages
• A disadvantage to one alternative is an advantage to alternative option
• For every dollar spent we need to identify that advantages that the money gets the project

takeaways
• Understand players are beyond team that need to be integrated (BOD, Leadership)
• Carrying design through to bid gives false sense of value• Independent cost estimation valued by leadership• BIM as integrating tool• Collaborative personality critical• Contract challenges require committed client• Work at the right level – not design to solve op’s issues• Concurrent Operational, Program, Design, Constructability:
high opportunity but high stress

IPD Contracting
• Options– IFOA = Integrated Form of Agreement– AIA IPD Agreement– ConsensusDocs– Other: Contract Rider, Behaviors
• Plus = Alignment of Parties• Deltas:
– Attorneys and Risk Management not necessarily on board
– Insurance products playing ‘catch-up’
Transformation Principles
• Assemble a high-performance cross-functional team as early as possible
• Focus the team on collectively exploring the project’s underlying human concerns and assisting the customer to define “value”
• Have the right person, do the right thing, in the right level of detail, at the right time (last responsible moment)
Transformation Principles
• Create a commercial structure that rewards the team for creating value, eliminating waste, and optimizing the project -- not discrete pieces
• Relentlessly innovate and continuously improve with the goal of increasing value and eliminating waste
Commercial Opportunities
• Pool Contingencies• Trade Contractors’ Compensation• Create Proper Incentives (Rewards)• Create “Enterprise” Risk Sharing• Eliminate trade-level GMPs• Eliminate Project GMP
Relationship between BIM and Lean
BIM facilitates pursuit of the Lean Ideal.Both BIM and Lean work best with
organizational integration and aligned commercial interests.
Lean planning and control helps BIM work better.
BIM is a tool, but a complex tool that impacts the design and execution of socio-technical systems.
Lean and BIM need each other!
SAT’s, Study Action Teams – Use Lean Books and/or Articles for discussion and alignment of team goals and values.
Team-Building – Build camaraderie in collaborative teams – open up dialogue by getting to know team members and have some fun.

Basic Rules to improve Construction
Focus - 1. Keep the Crew Installing 2. Reduce Inventory 3. Reduce Costs
Where to start?
Define a Key Process - Value Stream Map it Identify the Steps - value added/non value added
- Who Touches - Requirements
Define/verify VALUE as seen by the customer> Improve Quality - Eliminate Defects- Where do we not meet the customer’s requirements?- DON’T GET IT > DON’T MAKE IT > DON’T
SEND IT> Do Root Cause Analysis, do Poka Yoke
Does Value Flow - so one step leads immediately to the next with no batches?
> Look at handoffs - Define Rules of Release
Eliminate Treasure Hunts - Organize the Workplace > Use 5S’s, Spaghetti Chart & Kanban
Try something
Where to start?
Plan Do
Act Check
No Muda - Attack waste with a passion like Ohno > Use the ‘chalk watch’ & Reduce inventory
Standardize process step, tools & equipment
Implement Quick & Easy Kaizen >>2 implemented ideas per employee per month!
Reduce Inventory> Use Kanban> Eliminate stashes> Use LPS
Where to start?
Improve Project Management
Learn & Apply Last Planner System * Pull Schedule Look Ahead Plan Weekly Work Plan Measure PPC Do Constraints Analysis

Implementing Lean on Projects Structure the project organization to engage downstream players in upstream processes and vice-versa. Allow resources (money, personnel, schedule float, etc.) to move across organizational boundaries in pursuit of the best project-level returns. Encourage thoughtful experimentation; explore adaptation and development of methods for pursuing the lean ideal. Celebrate breakdowns as opportunities for learning rather than occasions for punishing the guilty. Implementing Lean on Projects
Becoming a Lean Enterprise: Getting Started
Don’t over-theorize. Learn by doing.
Start with your own work where you have the power to make changes.
Stabilize processes by making work flow predictable before attacking waste (muda).
Change the company culture by changing management practice.
Start with demonstration projects to adapt concepts and techniques to your situation, to provide proof of concept, to develop competence and confidence, and to build internal advocates and external partners.
No sense of urgency Lack of leadership Not communicating with employees Not creating short-term wins and
celebrating Seeing this as a Quick Fix Not anchoring the Lean changes with the
rest of the culture & systems
Barriers to Implementing Lean
The Real Barrier is thinking Lean can’t work in Construction!
Various Tools
Systematic use of tools & training
Lean in culture, people & enterprise
Levels of Lean Implementation
Companies ultimately progress or stall at these levels.
To get people to change:
