"A Mini-Workshop on Choosing By Advantages"
(a decision-making system)
Panel:
Ron Migliori, BBSE
Larry Summerfield, BBSE
Arun Kaiwar, Stantec
Abstract:
Choosing By Advantages (CBA) is a decision-making system that provides the basis for making more effective decisions. CBA can be incorporated into the Lean Design and Construction process by providing a sound method of comparing many alternatives. This collaborative process allows decisions to be anchored to facts while driving consensus and transparency. Join us in this Mini-Workshop where CBA concepts, principles, and definitions will be presented. After an example application all attendees will participate in a hands-on Choosing By Advantages exercise.
Date and Time: Wednesday, July 13, 2011 from 6-9pm
Early Registration / Cancellation Deadline: Friday, July 8, 2011. There will be no refunds after this time. Each person must register and pay to attend the meeting and dinner. Please help us save time, expense, and avoid people showing up at the last minute… plan ahead and register early!
Late Registration: Available after close of regular registration. Subject to availability.
Value Added Proposition:
Learn how the CBA system can help projects make the right decisions the first time, reducing loop backs to correct work that was based on incomplete information and biased assumptions.

LCI Nor Cal Community of Practice
The Lean Construction Institute (LCI), a non-profit research organization, was founded in August 1997. LCI's purpose is to develop and disseminate new knowledge regarding the management of work in design, engineering and construction for capital facilities. LCI has developed the Lean Project Delivery System© (LPDS), and the Last Planner® System of production control. Lean Construction is a production management-based approach to project delivery - a new way to design and build capital facilities. Lean production management has caused a revolution in manufacturing design, supply and assembly. Applied to construction, Lean changes the way work is done throughout the delivery process. Lean Construction extends from the objectives of a lean production system - maximize value and minimize waste - to specific techniques and applies them in a new project delivery process extending from project definition through design, supply and assembly.
The Northern California Community of Practice (CoP) of LCI provides local lean support to owners, architects and designers, engineers, contractors, specialty contractors, and suppliers. We invite owners and project delivery team members to meet together as a Community of Practice to learn, share, and develop a lean community in Northern California. As a regional forum for conversations among practitioners, the CoP will help create a new common sense for the AEC industry as LCI continues to build knowledge in design and construction.
