Agile Construction

Description

Duration:  1 Day

Instructor: Dr. Perry Daneshgari

Agile Construction™ is profitable construction. In spite of schedule changes, the plan needs to proceed. Resources and experience levels change with every personnel reassignment. People learn from ongoing experience. Agile Construction™ allows the contractor to rapidly adapt to job site changes in order to complete each project both profitably and efficiently. The agility (responsiveness) of the contractor at the job site will improve the profits. Agility, not leanness, is what construction jobsite management needs. This course will teach the principles, exercised successfully by other industries. It will focus on: labor productivity and measurement, job scheduling and planning, procurement management, estimation accuracy and improvement, project financial management. The participants will learn how to establish a useful productivity measuring method. They will experience simple methods and tools for scheduling and tracking that can improve visibility and knowledge of their jobs. They will learn how to identify the obstacles and labor waste which can impact job productivity, and discuss techniques that can improve it by better than 30%. The implementation of Agile Construction to jobs will guarantee much higher profits and better cash flow.
