A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
The Design Firm's Problem
The application of Lean thinking since the late 1990s has significantly impacted how buildings are constructed. Jobsites are better organized, and trades work together more effectively. Pull planning is increasingly used by architects and engineers to plan their work, and some projects are being developed using integrated project delivery (IPD) and IPD‐ish type approaches. Others firms apply Lean Six Sigma techniques to client processes to fine‐tune floor plan layouts for efficient use. The prevailing approach in the early 1960s for viewing the problems of large cities examined population density, tuberculosis rates, and crime, among other factors. A building, along with building information model and subsequent documents that describe it, is an organized complexity. Designers deal with very different issues than contractors. A central task of the design phases is to envision and develop a viable solution to an often changing set of parameters.
