Scope Of Work
As a key part of implementing integrated project delivery, Lean Construction techniques were also used to facilitate efficient project delivery of this 198,000-SF clinic in San Carlos, CA. To support this process, Skanska’s Lean Process Director led weekly training sessions at the Big Room. These sessions covered topics, such as pull planning, PPC tracking, weekly workplan, 5S, and reliable promise behavior. Combining these with the IPD Big Room, prefabrication of elements like duct risers and exterior framing panels and effective BIM usage, the team was able to deliver the project far ahead of what could have been accomplished using a schedule based on traditional construction approaches.
