Program Abstract: 

 

Shapiro & Duncan makes use of the 3-D coordinated drawing process to create fabrication drawings. S&D has gone to great lengths to incorporate Lean Manufacturing and Production principles into their fabrication facilty such s just in time manufacturing, mass production of similar parts to create assemblies and use of state of the art machinery to assist their efforts. This culture has increased production throughout the Construction Department from old line project managers down to the apprentice level.

Hosted By

LCI National Capital Region Community of Practice (CoP)



The Lean Construction Institute (LCI), a non-profit research organization, was founded in August 1997. LCI's purpose is to develop and disseminate new knowledge regarding the management of work in design, engineering and construction for capital facilities. LCI has developed the Lean Project Delivery System© (LPDS), and the Last Planner® System of production control. Lean Construction is a production management-based approach to project delivery - a new way to design and build capital facilities. Lean production management has caused a revolution in manufacturing design, supply and assembly. Applied to construction, Lean changes the way work is done throughout the delivery process. Lean Construction extends from the objectives of a lean production system - maximize value and minimize waste - to specific techniques and applies them in a new project delivery process extending from project definition through design, supply and assembly.

The LCI NCR Community of Practice is being developed to provide local lean support to owners, architects and designers, engineers, contractors, specialty contractors and suppliers who are doing business in the National Capital Region.  We invite project delivery team members to meet together as a local user group to learn, share and develop a lean community in the National Capital Region.  For more information please e-mail ncr-support@leanconstruction.org
