“There is a high need for owner's to recognize the commitment to Lean especially in the pre-design phases of major builds.  Successful projects need to implement Lean in the pre-planning & pre-design phases of the project.”                     ~ Mike Hogan

Plan on attending on Thursday October 1^st to hear Mike talk about his experiences and successes in implementing Lean Healthcare in Capital Construction Projects!

Current State:

· The healthcare system’s recognition of Lean implementation

· How does Lean affect  new design?

· Examples of some current hospitals and dangerous pitfalls

Future State:

· When you should employ Lean principles into the process?

· Who are the key stakeholders that should be involved?

· What are the key elements of Lean that you need to know?

Lean Steps in the Pre-Project Planning Process:

· Establishment of a lean planning committee

· Defining the current issues that are leading to the new design

· Defining the exact lean needs that are to be met by this project

· Establishing the parameters of lean needs

· Creating a lean project program and lean implementation schedule
