Lean Construction Education Program Unit 4: The Last Planner® SystemInstructor’s Guide By AGC of America Kindle Edition Lean Construction Education Program Unit 4: The Last Planner® SystemInstructor’s Guide WELCOME TO UNIT 4: THE LAST PLANNER® SYSTEM Lean Construction strives to minimize costs and maximize value on each project completed, challenging all stakeholders to develop and apply better ways to manage the overall construction process. Every participant in the construction process has incentive to get the project done faster and at a lower cost — from the project owners who want to see tangible results for their investment to designers and contractors who want to do their job well and move on to the next project. Throughout the construction process — planning, design, construction, activation, operations, maintenance, salvaging and recycling — the holistic pursuit of continuous improvement drives efficient, effective and economical projects. On a corporate level, lean is most effective when embraced by all areas of the company. To do so, senior management must understand the need for and advantages of lean implementation. But lean is also an individual journey. All project team members must work together on a daily basis, incorporating lean principles into their most basic work, to see the true benefits of lean. This course is just one part of the foundation that is available to help you reach these goals. Unit 4: The Last Planner® System is the second of two units introducing the Last Planner® System (LPS). This system was developed by the Lean Construction Institute (LCI) to plan projects in a way that produces predictable workflow and rapid learning. This half day, facilitator led course shows how to conduct makeready and weekly work planning sessions. The course is divided into three Session 1 revisits the LPS and introduces the concept of production planning, as contrasted with project management. We then consider the difference between reactive and proactive control. We also consider the role of the commitment — as the term is used in Lean Construction. Session 2 delves deeper into the LPS with a focus on the production planning pieces — the six week lookahead, the weekly work plan and the daily huddles — and shows how each is created. We also look at documenting constraints and calculating the percent plan complete. Finally, we use the five whys to get to the root cause of a failure. Session 3 is largely dedicated to a simulation of the LPS using a sample project. A six week look ahead schedule is created. The simulation concludes with the weekly work planning meeting. We also look at methods to encourage subcontractor participation in the planning meetings.
