Abstract:

Lean Concepts are best reinforced with simulations, and our team is prepared to walk you through the Airplane Factory simulation.  The simulation will be accompanied by analysis and discussion to learn the value of Lean in today’s business environment. 


**This is a repeat event, but for the Charlotte Community.

Value-Added Proposition (i.e., how it benefits attendees) 

Attendees will develop an appreciation for "flow" and "pull" in a lean simulation.

LCI Carolinas CoP



 

The Lean Construction Institute (LCI), a non-profit research organization, was founded in August 1997. LCI's purpose is to develop and disseminate new knowledge regarding the management of work in design, engineering and construction for capital facilities. LCI has developed the Lean Project Delivery System© (LPDS), and the Last Planner® System of production control. Lean Construction is a production management-based approach to project delivery - a new way to design and build capital facilities. Lean production management has caused a revolution in manufacturing design, supply and assembly. Applied to construction, Lean changes the way work is done throughout the delivery process. Lean Construction extends from the objectives of a lean production system - maximize value and minimize waste - to specific techniques and applies them in a new project delivery process extending from project definition through design, supply and assembly.

The Carolinas Community of Practice (CoP) of LCI provides local lean support to owners, architects and designers, engineers, contractors, specialty contractors, and suppliers.  We invite owners and project delivery team members to meet together as a local user group to learn, share, and develop a lean community in the Carolinas region. As a regional forum for conversations among practitioners, the CoP will help create a new common sense for the AEC industry as LCI continues to build knowledge in design and construction.
