Who is Dean Reed?

This month Dean Reed will be joining us from Redwood City, California to share with us on this topic.  Dean Reed is DPR Construction's Lean Construction Coordinator and works with project teams acrosss the country to implement Collaborative Virtual Building and Lean Construction principles and tools.  Most recently, he facilitated DPR's Lean project delivery of the Camino Medical Group Mountain View Campus, a $100 million state-of-the-art Healthcare center.  With more than 35 years of experience, Reed has focused the last 20 years on project planning and is a founding member of the Virtual Builders Roundtable, a group of owners and industry professionals dedicated to promoting virtual building by creating 3D models of building projects linked to construction schedules.  Reed is also a member of the Lean Construction Institute and a graduate of the "Shusa II" advanced lean implementation and leadership program.

 

Abstract:

The Last Planner System (LPS) is a essential first step to delivering a project on a Lean basis. LPS improves coordination by producing predictable workflow and rapid learning. The system operates as a series of connected conversations that establish what should be done, what can be done so that the Last Planner, the person making can make a reliable promise for its completion. LPS is not a computer system.  It is a set of protocols corresponding, phase pull Planning, look ahead planning, assignment preparation and reporting complete.

Lean Construction Institute Cascadia Chapter



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. To that end, the Cascadia chapter is a localized chapter serving the BC, WA, OR region.  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.
