Lean construction professionals and other industry leaders shared best practices and lessons learned at the AGC Building Contractors Conference on June 9-12 in Midway, Utah. The Conference included a full day of sessions sponsored by the Lean Construction Forum, which included an “introduction to lean” presentation and four case studies.
George Zettel with Turner Construction Co. led the introductory session titled “Lean Construction: A Basic Refresher” to a standing-room only audience. Immediately following, Tariq Abdelhamid with Enovio Consulting/Michigan State University provided an overview of four lean competency clusters. The afternoon sessions highlighted case studies that focused on the four competency clusters discussed earlier. The case studies were presented by Jennifer Oliverio, Linbeck Group; Dave MacNeel, Baker Concrete Construction; Thomas Demko, Burt Hill; and Kevin McClain, The Weitz Company.
