How can we help designers?

using lean and Last Planner® (or Design Delivery System) in the design phase:

• will often reduce the design phase by around 10%
• ensures that the design team understand the interdependencies between their contributions and are ready to work together
• reduces rework
• gets the team to sort many issues out before they become problems
• enables the team to re-plan more quickly when they encounter the unexpected

using lean in design & construction with early constructor involvement:

• reduces design workload as designers need only produce what is needed by constructors
• allows the design and construction team to work together to maximise end-user value with safer, greener, easier, cheaper, faster construction method
• usually compresses the design and construction period by 30% or more
