Scope Of Work
This renovation of a portion of the existing 6th floor into a 16-bed neurological ICU unit was delivered via the Integrated Lean Project delivery method utilizing Consensus Docs as the contracting vehicle. The owner and Lean IPD team invested resources to train the team in new processes and came together bi-weekly in a Big Room to discuss this project and any other projects the team was involved with. We introduced new Lean tools and concepts every month including A3s, Target Value Design, Oh-no Circles, Kaizen, 5Y, and Choosing By Advantages (CBA). In addition to these workflow interactions, the team set up a shared profit pool. The results included on-schedule delivery, innovative ideas that helped ensure IPD team goals were achieved while focusing on delivering everything on the customer’s wish list without disruption to existing operations.
