Is it a a fact that Lean methodology is ignored by the construction sector. While there has been a fair amount written about Lean principles, actual application in the form of an integrated construction planning, procurement, and project delivery methodology has been limited to 5% or less actual work. Alarcon (Ed.),
LEANConstruction Cost Control. Cost management systems should involve a set of robust processes required to ensure that a construction project is completed within the approved budget, on-time, and per specification, including cost estimating, cost control and cost projection. Learn more… [link].
An introduction to a LEANConstruction Framework – A Robust Solution fully supported by tools and services. Proceedings… of the 12th Annual Conference on Lean. Construction, Denmark. Proceedings… of the 14th Annual Conference on LeanConstruction, Santiago, Chile. Construction”.
LEAN OpenJOC(TM) Job Order Contracting has a number of distinct advantages for repetitive repair, renovation, minor new construction and maintenance projects. The Additional Benefits of LEAN OpenJOC Job Order Contracting. All of the following are provided via the LEAN OpenJOC Job Order Contracting solution. 4, 2002, p.
Without full support in this regard any LEAN initiative will fail. Robust LEAN implementations build long-term relationships wherein owners, service providers, and building users know and appreciate the value of each other… through processes that support open, construction, and ongoing interactions. and Price, I.
Gradually, this situation is beginning to change as collaborative, transparent, and productive construction delivery methods, notably Job Order Contracting, JOC, are being implemented. JOC is the implementation of robust LEAN best management practices. Journal of Construction Engineering and Management, Vol. Introduction.
LEAN Job Order Contracting Intro 4 continues to define LEAN JOC versus others so-called “JOC Programs” Basic elements of LEAN Job Order Contracting … Rewarding desired behaviors. Integrating operating, design and construction knowledge through broad based team meetings.
Job order contracting information is key to improving construction productivity. Over time, however, design-bid-build has proven to be inefficient, antagonistic, and incapable of delivering the majority of construction project on-time, on-budget, and to everyone’s satisfaction. They also select the construction delivery method.
Public sector and multi-building facility routinely scope, procure, award, and execute thousands of renovation, repair, maintenance, sustainability, and “minor” new construction projects. For most facility portfolio owners these types of projects represent a significantly larger capital outlay than major new construction.
85%+of all projects are over budget (just 31% of all projects came within 10% of the budget in the past 3 years – KPMG) 52% of rework is caused by poor project data and miscommunication (2018 Industry Report – Construction Disconnected, FMI). 40-50% work is either rework or not “value-added work.” COMMON MANAGEMENT FAILURES.
Construction delivery methods define roles, responsibilities, deliverables, levels of risks, set the overall tone, and ultimately determine the success or failure of a project more so than any single element. Construction Delivery Methods. Construction only is awarded to the lowest responsible/acceptable bidder.
The fundamental day-to-day business processes of the Engineering, Construction, Owner, and Operations sector are changing. Efficient construction delivery methods (IPD – integrated project delivery, JOC – job order contracting), cloud computing, and BIM are all integral components.

The characteristics of strategic collaboration and efficient construction project delivery are discussed below. Characteristics of Strategic Collaboration and Efficient Construction Project Delivery. Shorter construction schedules than planned. Partnering: a team building approach to quality construction. Abudayyeh, O.
Facility / Infrastructure Life Cycle Cost: Costs associated with designing, acquiring, constructing, adapting, maintaining, repairing, and operating a built structure. The latter is a process involving the construction and management of physical and functional conditions of a built structure over time. Abdul Lateef A, Olanrewaju.
