LEAN Facilities Management

LEAN Facilities Management Drives Optimal Outcomes for owners, facilities users, contractors, architects, engineers, and oversight groups.

LEAN is not new to the AECOO sector.  In fact, it has been successfully practice for decades in the form of Integrated Project Delivery, IPD and Job Order Contacting, JOC.

When applied to Facilities Management, LEAN’s value lies within integrating previously disparate technical and business domains and leveraging their experience from project concept through close out.

LEAN Facilities Management

  • Integrates technical and business teams
  • Leverages disparate experience of team members
  • Focus is upon outcomes
  • Rapid response and client-focused services delivery

To date, only 5% of the AECOO sector truly leverages LEAN for facilities renovation, repair, and maintenance, despite readily available and proven tools, techniques, and service providers.   While LEAN can delivery over 90% of projects on-time, on-budget, and to the satisfaction of all stakeholders, it does require significant “change management” for the uninitiated.   For example, information must be shared among all participants transparently, including financial/cost data.   Additionally risk and reward are shared among all teams.   This type of an environment is generally foreign to those experienced solely with traditional facilities management, construction, and AE activities.
