How do we see productivity?
We see ‘productivity’ as being made up of operational excellence, innovation and leadership combined with a collaborative culture and the strategic integration of these elements
Productivity = Resourcefulness
• The means to extend the resourcefulness of your business• About unleashing the potential of people, resources, and time • About working SMARTER – not harder

Historical Development of Lean Six Sigma
• Operations Stream
– Henry ford used these principles reduced lead time to transform iron
ore to an automobile from 14 days to 31 hours
– Price fell; $850, 1908 to $345, 1916
– Toyota invented Toyota production system (TPS) 1950 – 1980, to compete with ford’s low cost and gm’s variety of automobile since.
• Quality Stream– Motorola – 1980s challenge by Japanese chip quality and cost,
invented “six sigma.” Achieved consistency
– Engineers changed from measuring defects in parts per 1000 opportunities to per 1,000,000 opportunities (PPM)
– Motorola has documented about $16 billion savings as a result of six sigma initiatives
– GE – 1990s prescribed six sigma infrastructure of success and connected it to business strategy

What is Lean? – 5 Key Principles
Lean principles are underpinned by 5 key concepts as outlined by Womack and Jones in their seminal book: Lean Thinking
1. Specify what creates value from the customer’s perspective
2. Identify all the steps along the process chain or value stream
3. Make those processes flow
4. Make only what is pulled by the customer
5. Strive for perfection by continually removing wastes
Reference: Lean Thinking: Banish Waste and Create Wealth in Your Corporation, James P. Womack and Daniel T. Jones

Why Lean won’t work in construction
• We are too busy
• Lean is just for manufacturing
• We don’t make cars
• Lean won’t work for us
• We are different (and special)
• We tried that
• We make enough money
• We don’t need to change

Lean Construction Myths
• Myth #1 Lean is for the shop and can’t be applied or adapted to in construction.
• Myth #2 Lean will require me to work faster and harder.
• Myth #3 Lean Construction is a management fad.
• Myth #4 Lean’s language is so different I’ll probably have trouble applying it on site.

What Lean is NOT about
• Cost Cutting
• Slashing prices
• Workforce reductions
• Beating up subs & suppliers
• Being mean or stingy
21
Lean is not an acronym and has nothing
to do with LEED
![Page 22: Construction Productivity 101](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052318/58a2d7f91a28ab41128b7263/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Why Lean in Construction?
• Construction projects are over schedule
• Project have cost over runs and change orders
• Our sites injure too many workers
• No one is happy with performance
22
![Page 23: Construction Productivity 101](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052318/58a2d7f91a28ab41128b7263/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Goals of Lean Construction?
• Move towards reliable workflow
• Minimize waste
• Maximize value to the customer
• Optimize the whole, not the parts
• Develop disciple of continuous learning and improvement
With Lean, sites are safer, operate faster at a lower cost, and are less stressful

Ways to “collaborate” with suppliers
Vendoring Approach
• Be the “Torque master” of price negotiations
• Manipulations and short term bait and switch
• Commodity based / three bids and a buy
• Fight for margins
• One dimensional and simplistic
• Adversarial
Lean Approach
• Alliance model
• Focus on values, strategic fit and common goal
• Better margins for all
• Collaboratively work with partners to improve capacity and capabilities
• Increases safety, productivity, and innovation
Partnering relationships built on trust and collaboration
Vendors sell hot dogs, not construction services

5S – The Philosophy
• A place for everything and everything in its place
• Once progress is made, don’t allow it to backslide
• If nothing is done, nothing will improve
• Every employee must be involved regardless of hierarchy
“If you always do what you have always done, you will always get what you always have gotten.”

5S Numbers Game – Round 1
• In order to demonstrate the principles of 5S, we have a 6 round Numbers Game simulation.
• Our job during a 20 second shift, is to find and strike out the numbers 1 to 49 in correct sequence. Example: 1 2 3
• The team score will be represented by the lowest individual score achieved.
• Keep the papers face-down until we start.

5S Numbers Game – Round 2
• The first step of a 5S implementation is “Sort” and so we have removed from the area all the numbers from 50 to 90 which are not needed.
• Same rules apply. Strike out numbers 1 to 49 in sequence during a 20 second shift.
• The team score will be represented by the lowest individual score achieved.
• Keep the papers face-down until we start.

5S Numbers Game – Round 3
• We saw some improvement after implementing “Sort” and now we are including “Set in Order”.
• To do so, we have installed some racking and we have organized the items.
• Same rules apply 20 second shift, lowest individual score equals team score etc…
• Keep the papers face-down until we start.

5S Numbers Game – Round 4
• Having now made a significant step forward, we must now “Standardize”.
• Since we are dealing with numbers 1 to 49 in sequence, it seems logical to re-organize them in a standard way that makes the completion of the work task as easy as possible.
• This should ensure that everyone is able to complete the task (and therefore produce a team score of 49.)
• Keep the papers face-down until we start.

5S Numbers Game – Round 5
• To show respect for Standards it is necessary to make the “management” of the area visual.
• Returning to our original work area, we have for this assignment two numbers missing. We cannot complete the task without these numbers - so first we have to find them.
• When we move to the next slide we will start a clock running until we find the 2 missing numbers. Call out the 2 missing numbers when you identify them.

5S Numbers Game – Round 6
• How did that last exercise make you feel?• Now let’s look at the same production cell after
completing the 5S implementation and repeat the same task.
• When we move to the next slide we will start a clock running until we find the 2 missing numbers. Call out the 2 missing numbers.

5S – Final Thoughts
• Achieve the discipline or habit of properly maintaining the correct 5S procedures
• Develop a habit of simplifying, straightening, scrubbing, and stabilizing your workplace
• Everyone has to accept 5S as a personal goal
• People follow examples, good or bad. Set a good one!

To take back to site (or office)
• Collaboration won’t happen overnight
• Regardless of the contract we can collaborate
• Tough on issues – not people
• Optimize the project not the parts
• Can’t contract behavior (what we think the contract is vs. what it means)
• Get the right people on the project (and the wrong people off)
• Measure, measure, measure
