Lean for Owners
If you’re an owner, you’re someone who invests in capital projects. Owners are responsible for hiring teams to design and construct a project. Owners are also institutions, such as hospitals, higher education, pharmaceutical companies, automotive companies, real estate developers, and the like.

Lean for Constructors
A constructor (or general contractor) is someone who does all of the building work on a project. Anyone who works for a construction company falls under this umbrella. If you’re the owner of a construction company, you’re considered a constructor for our purposes.

Lean for Designers
Whether you’re an architect, an engineer, or a designer, you fall under the category of designer. Designers are the people responsible for designing projects for construction. Owners of design firms also fall under the designer umbrella for our purposes.
