Workshop B: Mastering Co-ordination Meetings to Drive Constructable, Aligned Designs in Design- Assist Projects
1:30 pm
- Reviewing the case for early alignment: why most projects fail in preconstruction, the cost of siloed starts, and what "start-ready" actually means
- Discovering a four-phase preconstruction process for a mid-market GC
- Analyzing design coordination, then and now – how we got here, current best-practices and where the industry is headed
- Using pull planning as the alignment tool — push-vs-pull, who needs to be in the room, and a live in-room exercise that makes it real.
