LEAN2 in the Way we Work and the Projects We Deliver Presentation Overview: As it currently operates, the commercial real estate construction industry is a disaster full of built-in waste. Seventy percent of all projects are over -budget, poor quality, and are delivered late. Our clients deserve better and should not be subjected to the risk, stress and embarrassment of getting tumbled on a reef of knarly change notices, schedule delays and poor quality associated with tendered projects. Teams that adopt the LEAN Integrated Project Delivery (LIPD) approach are able to achieve paradigm shift levels of performance improvements. 200% improvements in productivity, 40% reductions in capital cost and 30% reductions in operating costs. The LIPD process requires a proactive, collaborative approach to Project Management and the adoption of principles, tools and process from LEAN manufacturing that have been adapted for the building industry. Our approach to Lean Project Delivery eables teams to achieve significant “Performance” and “Quality” and “Productivity” improvement!

Living Building Challenge Project #2
As leaders in the community it is our duty to protect the planet and demonstrate that
triple bottom line economics work. For our second Living Building Challenge project,
we have adopted Lean Project Delivery to raise the bar even higher as we want less
cost, less time and to be fully commissioned at substantial completion.
Kathleen Lausman

8. For our project we wanted to demonstrate to that triple bottom line economics work for
commercial real estate. We are on target to deliver the Mosaic Centre to the highest level of
sustainability as defined by Living Building Challenge for approximately the same cost as a
traditional build.
Our return on investment will be in the productivity of our people, recognition as good
stewards of the planet and from the financial benefits of having higher occupancy and no
energy bills.
