Presentation:                                           A3 Thinking

Speaker:                     Katherine Blume, PE, LEED AP / Southland Industries

 

Abstract:

How does your organization think about problems?  Are problem something that must be fixed quickly even if the fix doesn’t address the root cause?  Or are problems viewed as an opportunity for learning, growing and improvement?  The way that your organization identifies, frames, explores and acts on challenges, at all levels is a key to its ability to grow and thrive in a competitive environment.

A3 Thinking is a management process that helps to create an organization that continually learns and grows.  The A3 itself is a lean tool that increases collaboration and transparency.  A3s provide a unique opportunity to combine strategy management and problem solving.

LCI - San Diego 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.
