Kaitlin Frank is a former superintendent, multi-generation builder, and now CEO at eMOD Safety Inc. She loves construction and leads her company like a well-managed building project using Sprints (#Scrum). eMOD’s team of experienced commercial construction superintendents, project managers, and safety officers made a dedicated safety solution to efficiently manage, track, and comply with environmental, health, and safety regulations right from their fingertips.

Construction workers and management are under increasing pressure to deliver on-time and under-budget, despite facing increasing regulations and hazards. Analog traditional project management processes lead to poor accountability, a lack of foresight, zero visibility, low productivity, and an inability to continuously improve. Kaitlin has done the research and found that 7 out of 10 front-line builders put productivity above safety and cited their work as a priority above their physical well-being. Construction fatalities are greater than even military deaths per year. We owe this and the next generation of construction owners, insurance companies, general contractors, subcontractors, and tradespeople safe projects.

⚠️ Warning ⚠️ This episode is not for the easily offended Lean practitioner. Dr. Shahrukh Irani is an experienced industrial engineer specializing in high-mix, low-volume Lean implementations. Shahrukh has studied Lean and is a practicing industrial engineer, author, and teacher. In his own words about his book, “WARNING! This book [Job Shop Lean] is written by an Industrial Engineer who never worked at Toyota. But that did not deter me! I figured out that whatever the general public knows about the Toyota Production System aka LEAN is IE [Industrial Engineering] that Toyota used in the 1900s. And IE in the 1900s was not enabled by Operations Research, Data Science and a horde of software tools.” His favorite place to be is where people implement Job Shop Lean in various manufacturing facilities like forge or machine shops, fabrication facilities, and shipping departments. He has applied lean problem-solving to product family formation, work cell design, production scheduling, and proven techniques to drive continuous improvement.

Be cautious of what you choose to learn. Some ideas take deep roots. Rebecca (Martin) Snelling and Dan Fauchier learned about Lean Construction, and it transformed their lives, work, and friendship on a billion-dollar project. Today they each coach people, organizations, and leaders to transform design and construction. When making a change, be aware that people may actively work against it. Beyond just Lean Construction tools, these two know how to influence projects and company culture. People that find ways to grow themselves separate learners, followers, and leaders.

In this episode of The EBFC show, Felipe Engineer-Manriquez and Jason Schroeder dig into the challenges that the construction industry faces due to the 'bungee effect' – poor planning leading to volatile work schedules and frequent disruptions. They share their expertise on adopting lean and scrum methodologies and maintaining workflow on the job site, discussing their practical strategies for overcoming unpredictable situations.

Through comprehensive conversation, Jason and Felipe shed light on the wider implications of ineffective project management. They share how poor work management practices can lead to increased stress, decreased work pride, and a compromise in project quality. Understanding these facets, the duo stresses the value of adopting efficient planning strategies for enhancing work quality and productivity.

The popular traditional paradigm that 'bigger is always better' has major drawbacks. Instead, you can implement reduced batch sizes and right-sized teams to realize the benefits of frequent and consistent delivery of work. Real-world insights are shared, highlighting the benefits of experimenting with systems and understanding them to make necessary adjustments.

The episode also broadens to reflect on systemic issues affecting the industry, including housing scarcity and a declining workforce driven by socioeconomic conditions. Changemakers are at work to create conditions to serve as flagship examples and emphasize the importance of making structural changes to progress toward a productive and brighter future.

Navigate this transformative episode to gain a nuanced perspective on the construction industry, lean management, and systemic challenges. Learn how to beat the 'bungee effect' and adopt effective strategies to reinforce the resilience of your projects.

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:

1. The Law of Variation
2. The Theory of Constraints (bottlenecks)
3. Little’s Law (batch size and durations)
4. Kingman’s Forumla (capacity utilization and variation)
