Why you should not miss this workshop
Lean Construction is now a system and a global philosophy of production and management of construction projects. This workshop is a unmissable opportunity for getting a complete and practical overview on the implementation of Lean Construction by the hand of 3 speakers who are experts in the implementation of the Lean tools and concepts shown in the workshop, in various areas from the execution and management of construction projects, as well as in comprehensive Lean management in the company as an organization. In addition, this workshop is coordinated and directed by Alan Mossman, one of the most representative figures of Lean Construction internationally.
Objectives of the training workshop
- Acquire an overview of the Lean production system and its application to construction, understand its basic principles, concepts and key tools.
- Acquire an overview of collaborative planning and methodology of the Last Planner System.
- Know the difference between managing a project with traditional methods with Lean project management tools such as Integrated Project Delivery (IPD), collaborative or relational contracts and the Target Value Design.
- See how Lean construction is being implemented and the benefits that the companies that have already chosen this work philosophy are obtaining, in contrast with others still stuck in traditional planning systems and project management.
