The proper deployment of defined processes and tools will facilitate this critical alignment. This collaboration must begin before mobilization and continue through project closeout. During this session\, we will discuss the workflow that must exist in order to mitigate risk and maximize productivity. During this session\, we will discuss why the processes of preconstruction planning\, short interval planning\, production tracking\, daily project reports\, exit strategy\, and lessons learned are critical to the organization. We will also discuss what the benefits are for each member of the team\, and how these processes can be properly implemented.Learning Objectives:Describe the information needed to effectively navigate preconstruction planningLearn the critical communication required in short interval planningDiscuss the importance of accurate production trackingIdentify the needed data transfer of a daily project reportOutline the data collection required of the project team during closeout and lessons learnedRecommended for: Project managers\, field leaders\, and office staff. Thomas Santos is an operations executive with more than 35 years of experience improving performance across manufacturing\, prefabrication\, construction\, and consulting organizations. A specialist in Lean\, 5S\, and Six Sigma methodologies\, he helps companies streamline processes\, strengthen collaboration\, and deliver measurable operational improvements. Thomas has led facility start-ups\, large-scale operational transformations\, and cross-functional teams while integrating quality\, safety\, and continuous improvement initiatives that drive long-term business success.
