Introduction to Lean tools- CBA, A3s, 5s

On Monday, October 5, Pankow Warriors gathered in the San Francisco for Lean 101 Training. Lean Gurus Bret Firebaugh and Sarah Zdarko gave a brief introduction to lean tools- CBA, A3s, 5s. Groups of four worked together to practice pull planning. Each person represented a different trade partner. The teams worked together to plan the construction of a structure made of children's blocks. "This pull planning exercise made me a believer in the benefits of pull planning. I am excited to use this on the upcoming Milpitas Project," said Field Superintendent Ron Roche. "It was great to see that pull planning can be applied in the office and in the field," said Phuong Duong, Business Development Coordinator.
