WHY Lean Project Boot Camp?


Have you ever heard of a team winning a Championship that didn’t go to BOOT CAMP? 


At boot camp we learn why other teams are sluggish, why they drop balls, have bottlenecks and don’t win championships. The Boot camp day includes an overview of lean principles and practices that enable work to flow, value to be created and higher productivity and business success to be achieved. 





We learn how the Last Planner System is used to create reliable work flow on a project and how it delivers amazing results. The whole purpose of BOOT CAMP is to learn the basic principles of how to create flow and why the Last Planner System is the system that we need everyone to buy-in to using for design and construction. Think of BOOT CAMP as a “Lean Immersion Weekend Getaway”, where we immerse ourselves in lean so we understand just how BIG an impact process change can have on productivity. 


The Boot Camp Day can handle a maximum of  thirty participants. It includes:

  • The Business Case for Lean Project Delivery
  • Last Planner System Overview
  • Villego Stage 1: Bench mark production capabilities (Traditional methods)
  • Parade of Trades: Learn that we need to minimize production variability
  • Airplane Game: Learn why small batch and single piece flow improves productivity
  • Villego Stage 2: How Collaboration, Planning and Discipline lead to Extraordinary results


Creating an AHA Moment!


When participants experience hands on lean production and see the huge potential of a different way of approaching production, the light bulb goes on and there is an AHA moment. Creating this AHA moment is instrumental in getting the team engaged and primed for the cultural change needed for Lean Project Delivery.








Our goal with this Boot Camp is to provide all the training needed to apply lean project delivery to your project. The next step for participants is to plan and execute a phase of a project using the principles and practices learned in this session.
