The following is a summary of our online courses and workshops that have been developed to ramp teams up on implementing Lean & Green Project Delivery practices. At the Lean Lab we utilize lean to achieve much higher levels of sustainable performance and profitability by creating productive design and construction environments.
Our courses are based upon lessons learned on ten lean projects as we like to practice what we preach at Integrated Designs where we were an early adopter of lean and at EcoSmart where we build NetZero targeted homes.

Lean 101 | Lean Project Workshop
"HOW to get started with Lean on your Non-Lean Project"
When participants experience hands on lean production training they can see there is huge potential for improving the building process. The goal of this workshop is to teach the basic principles, create a AHA moment about the huge potential and prime the team for cultural change.
Learning objects:
- Why lean creates a competitive advantage
- An overview of how lean is applied to the building industry
- Basic Principles and Practices to get you started on a lean journey
Details: 3-hour workshop for up to 40 people
Cost: $750 plus expenses
"A Great Overview of Lean Project Delivery"
It takes a team
with a different way of thinking and a high level of collaboration to deliver a
lean project. This course is for people that want to facilitate the implementation
of the Lean Project Delivery System that was developed by the Lean Construction
Institute. You will learn how to create
and manage a Team, facilitate lean design and construction systems. (Target Value Design, Last Planner System) You
will also learn how to setup collaborative work environments and explore the
lean tools that are available to take your projects to a whole new level.
Three main learning are:
- Develop an understanding of the Essential Elements of a Lean Project
- How to establish a highly collaborative team
- How to implement the Lean Project Delivery System
Details: This is a 25-hour
hour online course on “Lean Project Fundamentals” The cost is $275.
The Best Way to Kickstart a Project
This one or two-day Boot Camp is designed to fast track a TEAM to implement the Lean Project Delivery system. Day 1 includes Last Planer System training with four rounds of simulations. On the second day we start implementation of the Last Planner System by planning a phase of the project.
Three main learning objectives are:
- Develop an understanding of how to reduce variability and create flow
- What different thinking and strategies create amazing productivity improvements
- How methods like Pull Planning get the team working as a team
Details: This “Lean Immersion Boot Camp” in an intense one or two-day workshop for 30 participants. Pricing is dependent upon the number of participants. (Approximately $3500/day)
How to deliver economical NetZero Projects
NetZero homes can provide a positive return on investment if designed properly. In this course we share lessons learned from four NetZero projects on how best to deliver cost effective affordable NetZero residential and commercial building projects. You will learn about passive, lean and integrated NetZero construction. The workshop is hosted in a NetZero targeted prefab green home that was designed and built by EcoSmart developments.
Learning objectives are:
- Understand why we can have higher performance at less cost
- How to design affordable NetZero building projects
- Lessons learned on strategies and system selection
Turning the Design Process on it's Head
By turning the traditional design process on its heads we can reduce the cost of a project by 15%. Target Value Design as the name suggests is a disciplined design management system that focuses on creating value for the client at a target cost they can afford and are willing to pay.
Learning objectives:
- Understand why we can have higher performance at less cost
- How to integrate the design to achieve project requirements to target cost
- Methods and tools to lean up the design process
It takes a TEAM to Deliver WOW projects at Less Cost
As you develop mastery in Lean Project Delivery you will be able to achieve higher productivity, profit and performance. This advanced level course focuses on the lean and more integrated practices that enable extraordinary results such as delivering NetZero building at no additional cost.
Three main learning objectives are:
- Why not set the bar high like Net Zero Energy at Net Zero additional cost?
- How to deliver exceptional projects by creating a highly collaborative team
- Manage with discipline using the Last Planner System & Target Value Design
Details: The Lean to be Green Facilitator course is an in depth exploration of how to deliver higher performance at less cost. (50-hour online course, Introductory cost of $375)

LeanCx 404 | The Art of Commissioning Workshop
Getting to Done is Done 4 Months Early
If you are interested in getting your project to the finish line early at less risk, stress and cost you may want to consider the “Lean Commissioning” (LeanCx) workshop. In this workshop we first establish a business case for a more intensive commissioning approach. We then delve into how a proactive, integrated and a more collaborative approach to commissioning enables higher productivity and profit.
Learning objectives:
- Why we need to expand the little black box called commissioning
- How to get to the finish line early
- Managing the Team with discipline
