The lean procurement techniques given in this practical guide couldsave clients up to 40% of total design and construction costs; casehistory evidence is included to prove that the techniques reallywork. The guide goes on to explain in equal depth the leanconstruction techniques that supply-side design and constructionfirms (including trades contractors) need to adopt to deliver thesavings while boosting their profit margins.
Written in an accessible style, it explains why leanconstruction techniques will only deliver this high level ofsavings if they are underpinned by long-term, strategic,supply-side partnering relationships between consultants,construction contractors, trades contractors andmanufacturers.
This is a 'how to' book written in terms everyonecan understand, without the need for an expert interpreter orcostly training.
