When the empire state building was constructed there was no such thing as software, but that doesn’t mean that scheduling wasn’t happening. Quite the opposite, it stands as one of the fastest construction projects of all time. Throughout history various scheduling means and methods have aided the complex coordination of labor, equipment and material that builders utilize to predict a projects outcome. In this session we cover the primary challenge of scheduling and review the history of how scheduling has evolved from both a means and methods perspective as well as how technology has and will influence its future.

Imagine.  A single package is delivered to the construction project.  The package is a complete module which includes a finished, painted, welded hollow metal frame, with the finished door and hardware pre-assembled and ready to be installed in the wall opening, in 10 minutes, by a single carpenter, at the end of the project.  The walls are finished and painted, flooring is installed, in fact rooms are staged with furniture and equipment, and then the frame, door and hardware are installed as a complete module.  This is not a dream, it’s the Qwikinstall FDH Kit Module.  A Lean Innovation Solution.
