Synopsis from our Lean Construction Institute of Canada presentation at the 2019 Annual Conference:
Marquardt Mechanical's Lean Digitization presentation will share how a construction trade partner is utilizing
Lean principles, tools, and technology to enable a lean culture across its remote construction projects. The
presenters will share how they are leveraging standard work, tiered accountability, and digital applications to
transform their company's culture. The discussion will include the successes, challenges, and failures to
implement lean as a small piece of a complex construction supply chain that is slow to adopt lean. This
presentation summarizes the company’s journey of connecting the everyday on-site construction standard work
activities to the "big picture" strategic objectives of the mechanical contracting company.
