4. Current Practice: A Coherent Common Sense
Optimize the project by optimizing the pieces.
Pressurize each supplier/participant to preform
by commercial terms.
Use an activity-centered operating system to plan
and manage the work

9. A New Common Sense
Operating System
Optimize the Project and not the Piece.
Explain and describe the three opportunities created by LC. We will explore them in the order we came to understand them. And along the way we will explore the three domains of project delivery. Our aim is to illustrate the difference between the coherent domains of current practice and lean based project delivery.By impeccable coordination we mean the ability of the people on the project to do what they say they are going to do so that others may operate efficiently and follow closely.As coordination improves, the next opportunity is to take advantage of a particular workflow and design the project in production system terms we will explore this on the way.And in the course of designing projects as production systems, it will become obvious that the ability to move money across boundaries is a key to greater improvements.So we focus on the operating system a project management, we believe lean offers a new operating system and it is here where we focus the seminar. And we will explore the implications for organizational change and commercial terms.
What is this thing called lean? We are here to report on the results of curiosity focused on how work is understood and done. There are lots of ways to look at this. Our aim is that you understand the basic vocabulary, underlying concepts and basic practices of Lean Construction.We expect this to challenge and surprise you and invite you to day of enquiry, to frame your thinking so that you can understand, remember and then evaluate once you have the pieces and understand their connections. We want everyone to leave with a plan for action. we encourage you to ask questions and challenge us when we seem a off-track.

Fortunately, the paradigm – the way we see understand and act in the world is changing. Explain how Lean happened in construction, nature of the shiftHow people can legitimately say they have been doing this for years and where they blind.How lean challenges is replacing the current coherent approach to managing projectsMy best guess about where we are in that transformation and likely consequences.Support the case that There is no turning back.
