Networking Change-Makers with Reena Friedman Watts

Hal Macomber

Hal Macomber says, “Lean is NOT a cost-cutting approach. Lean is a people development approach.” The current state of construction is changing. More and more people are changing how we build. In this continued interview, Hal shares what actions you can take to build higher team performance while building new capabilities including his standard approach for improving project delivery. When we focus on people and improving construction flow, we will be engaged in better strategies to minimize the impact of variation and complexity.  "Use Flow as your improvement metric. Engage the people doing the work, that is how to make positive changes, and continue learning." Focus on flow, use Takt Planning, and heed the production laws. The Four Production Laws include: The Law of Variation The Theory of Constraints (bottlenecks) Little’s Law (batch size and durations) Kingman’s Forumla (capacity utilization and variation) Free Takt Resources: https://www.elevateconstructionist.com/taktbookresources   Free Construction Scrum Book Resources https://constructionscrum.com/downloads    Connect with Hal via  LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/halmacomber/   Connect with Felipe via Social media at https://thefelipe.bio.link  Subscribe on YouTube to never miss new videos here: https://rb.gy/q5vaht    --- Today’s episode is sponsored by Bosch RefinemySite.

The Funniest Lean Guy - Jake Harrell

Cromwel and Miljan see a future in construction where individuals and teams easily adapt to the increasing levels of complexity and are on a mission to further develop the practices, mindsets, systems architecture, and culture of the construction industry. Better delivery for everyone involved starts now and improvement of the quality of people’s lives is the driver.   The construction industry is constantly changing, and so are the ways that it's done.

Agility in Construction with Cromwel Burgos and Miljan Bajic

Many construction projects fail to finish on time and on budget. Adopting Lean Construction principles and tactics can help. David MacNeel helps facility owners and contractors deliver major capital projects early and under budget. He has coached over 400 project teams in Lean principles, Lean tools, and Lean thinking.  Dave learned to apply Lean during his 20-year career with the nation’s largest concrete contractor as a Superintendent, PM, and Operations Manager. He also instructs several courses for LCI and AGC at the national level and is the Founder of On Point Lean Consulting, LLC.    Connect with David via LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/dmacneel/ Website at www.onpointlean.com   Connect with Felipe via Social media at https://thefelipe.bio.link  Subscribe on YouTube to never miss new videos here: https://rb.gy/q5vaht    Episode Links:  Construction Scrum Master Training https://news.theebfcshow.com/Scrum-Training Learn more about Felipe’s book, “Construction Scrum” at https://constructionscrum.com/   Learn more about Takt Planning from Jason Schroeder and the LeanTakt team at  https://www.elevateconstructionist.com/taktbookresources  --- Today’s episode is sponsored by Bosch RefinemySite.

On Point Lean Construction with David MacNeel

The unknown enables us to grow when we take on new challenges. You don’t have to leap into it alone when it comes to improving your work. LaShira Champion-King is a passionate builder dedicated to improving project delivery and has helped many construction project teams adopt the continuous improvement mindset. She shares her knowledge and experience in providing value while minimizing waste throughout different projects. She has decades of experience helping people transform to make their project delivery easier and better.    Gifts and Hooks Introduction Activity  Give each person four sticky notes. They will use 3 to state a gift they give to the group (e.g., experience, knowledge of what hasn't worked, Innovation), and one sticky will state a "hook" that will keep them fully engaged in the meeting/workshop (e.g., focusing on the future, open environment). Then post the sticky notes to show commonalities among the group.    *The use of sticky notes here is a part of "ninja Scrum" for LaShira. It’s her way to start people off with the process without much suspicion.   Credit: Michael Wilkinson at Leadership Strategies   Connect with LaShira via LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/lashira-champion-king-02b36b207   Connect with Felipe via Social media at https://thefelipe.bio.link  Subscribe on YouTube to never miss new videos here: https://rb.gy/q5vaht    Episode Links:  Construction Scrum Master Training https://news.theebfcshow.com/Scrum-Training   Learn more about Felipe’s book, “Construction Scrum” at https://constructionscrum.com/ --- Today’s episode is sponsored by Bosch RefinemySite.

Continuous Improvement Passion with LaShira Champion-King

The Easier, Better, for Construction Show strives to make building easier and better today. We dig into design and construction topics to inspire you to develop your people, improve your processes, and take the business of building to the next level. Podcasts are published at 12AM PST every other Wednesday.

Secret sauce is something that makes a company more efficient and adds value for the customer. Brian Melcher says, “This is Scrum.” He is the Founder, Owner, and Principal at Field Verified, the first building envelope consulting firm in Arizona to expand to a full-scale testing facility. He began his career building custom homes and retail spaces in Southern California. His experience shifted to quality assurance inspection of residential and commercial buildings across the United States. He is an expert in water intrusion, construction defects, code compliance and building maintenance with skills that include forensic construction investigation, analyzing reported construction defects and resolving construction disputes. He led Field Verified in developing ISO-compliant testing procedures to become the first AAMA-Accredited field testing agency in the world and opened the first accredited mock-up and window testing laboratory in the Mountain West. The Field Verified team provides roofing and waterproofing experts to construction projects across the United States.

This is Scrum with Brian Melcher

Iris D. Tommelein is a Professor of Engineering and Project Management in the Civil and Envir. Engrg. Dept. at UC Berkeley. She focuses on developing theory and principles of project-based production management for the architecture-engineering-construction industry, what is termed 'lean construction.' She is an expert on construction site logistics, layout, materials- and supply-chain management.   Professor Tommelein directs the Project Production Systems Laboratory (P2SL - p2sl.berkeley.edu), a research institute dedicated to developing and deploying knowledge and tools for project management as well as a learning lab for the Northern California construction industry. She is active in the International Group for Lean Construction and until recently served on the Board of Directors of the Lean Construction Institute (LCI).   LCI recognized her with the Lean Pioneer Award 2015 - The award recognizes an individual (or organization) who has moved the design and construction industry forward in embracing and implementing Lean tools and techniques on capital projects (www.leanconstruction.org/news/95/36/LCI-Recognizes-Iris-Tommelein-with-Prestigious-Pioneer-Award/ ).   Prof. Tommelein received the 2014 Peurifoy Construction Research Award from the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) (faculty.ce.berkeley.edu/tommelein/papers/Peurifoy.pdf ). She also received the 2002 Walter L. Huber Civil Engineering Prize "for her research on civil engineering computing for managing project-based production systems in the engineering-architecture-construction industry."   Professor Tommelein served on the ExCom of ASCE's Technical Council on Computing and Information Technology (TCCIT) and as a member of the Research Council of the Construction Institute.
