Ep.1325 - First Planner System™️ - Introduction - 3

from Elevate Construction · host Jason Schroeder

In this podcast we cover: Introduction to the First Planner System™️ - Why Cake? Part 2 Every project has problems but whether they cost you time, money, and morale depends on when you find them. In this episode, I unpack the "window of doom" concept from How Big Things Get Done and explain why discovering problems in preconstruction is infinitely cheaper (and less painful) than finding them in the field. We'll look at the hard data from 16,000+ projects, dismantle the dangerous fallacies that sabotage planning, and explore why Takt planning beats the push mentality every time. Plus, I'll share how Pixar's planning process holds the key to delivering construction projects on budget, on time, and without burning out your team.
