Where Lean, AWP, and Project Production Management Meet
LCI is pleased to support Construction Industry Institute’s 2026 Global AWP+ Conference on November 18-20, bringing together professionals focused on improving how projects are planned, coordinated, and delivered.
The conference will explore the intersection of Lean Construction, Advanced Work Packaging (AWP), Project Production Management (PPM) and digital execution, with insights from industry leaders putting these approaches into practice.
If you’re looking to learn from industry peers, discover emerging technologies, and engage with leading practitioners, this is an event you won’t want to miss!
Two Free Virtual Sessions to Help You Deliver Better Projects
Looking for practical ways to reduce rework, improve coordination and make better project decisions? You can join two free virtual sessions during PMI’s Global Gigaprojects & Construction Week, November 16–22.
Delivering Through Complexity: Lean Lessons from Design to Construction
Wednesday, November 18 | 3:00–4:00 PM ET
Hear LCI-certified practitioners share how they’ve handled competing priorities, delayed decisions, missed handoffs and changing conditions on real projects. You’ll leave with practical ideas for strengthening alignment, improving reliability and keeping work moving.
What the Data Tells Us: Proven Practices Behind the Industry’s Most Successful Projects
Friday, November 20 | 11:30 AM–12:30 PM ET
See what new research from LCI and Dodge Construction Network reveals about the practices most closely associated with high-performing projects — including where owners, designers and contractors agree, where they differ and what you can apply to your own work.
LCI is proud to serve as a Knowledge Partner for Global Gigaprojects & Construction Week, building on its previous work contributing construction-focused knowledge and content to the PMI Construction Professional (PMI-CP)™ certification.
Both sessions are free and virtual.
Sean Graystone on the Impact of a Team-first Mentality
In this short insightful video, Sean Graystone of Jacobs discusses siloed thinking and how it undermines collaboration and why Respect for People is central to Lean project delivery. When owners, designers, builders, trade partners, and suppliers work toward a shared win, teams are better equipped to solve problems and deliver stronger outcomes.

Prove the Lean Experience You’ve Built
Lean expertise is earned through real project work. LCI Certification helps you prove it.
The LCI-CPC and LCI-CPD credentials validate professionals who have applied Lean principles in real design and construction environments—not simply completed a course or learned the terminology. Certification includes both a knowledge assessment and a portfolio demonstrating real-world application and impact.
If you have several years of hands-on experience improving workflows, strengthening collaboration, reducing waste, or helping teams deliver better outcomes, certification may be the next step in your Lean journey.
