Hal Macomber and Greg Howell, co-founders of Lean Project Consulting, Inc. of Louisville, CO, announced Friday, February 12, 2010 the promotion of two of their colleagues to the position of Associate Principal. Roberto Charron, of Sunny Isles, FL, will assume responsibility for corporate transformations to lean management.  Steve Knapp, P.E., of Louisville, CO will assume responsibility for Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) Services.

 

Lean Project Consulting, Inc. was founded in 2000 to bring lean practices to the design and construction industry. The firm is the leading consultant for Integrated Project Delivery contracts, which promote a win-win rather than an adversarial work environment. The company also consults on the project management approach called the Last Planner® System, which dramatically improves reliability and collaboration on construction projects. Last Planner is a registered trademark of the Lean Construction Institute.

Hello,

I am doing a 2 minute survey on surveymonkey.com to understand better what your questions are. I've been making offers to come to your office for an hour to present and discuss Lean. With your help I would like to better focus and prepare. Please take a minute in the survey HERE (http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/5VFTGWX) to tell me who you are and what questions you have. I'll publish the results here on my blog. All is anonymous. 

Thanks,
Matt
