Ep.1274 - Implement Systems Fully—Make Improvements bit-by-bit

from Elevate Construction Hosted by Jason Schroeder

In this podcast we cover: Why systems must be implemented fully. How improvements can be made bit-by-bit. What if the reason your systems fail isn't the people but the way they're implemented? In this episode, I share why trying to roll out Last Planner bit by bit will never work. Using examples from manufacturing lines, HVAC systems, and even Paul Akers' Two-Second Lean, I break down the difference between a system and an improvement. The secret is simple: systems must be complete to function, but improvements can be made gradually. Too often, we confuse the two and end up frustrated. If you've ever tried to implement change only to see it stall, this blog will shift your perspective.
