Scrum works well with Takt for complex areas like lobby, hoist erection, medical equipment, MEP renovations. The product owner populates backlog from Takt work steps. The team autonomously moves items from sprint backlog to in progress to complete. Last Planner integrates perfectly under Takt. Five levels: master, phase pull, make ready lookahead, weekly work, day planning. Elementary classroom clarity measures if a third grader understands the plan. Target is over 80 percent. Crash landing means compression ignored until damage is done. Team pushes harder, increases materials and workers, takes project out of flow. Controlled landing means compression recognized early. Flow is maintained. Worker counts stay consistent. Pushing only extends the end date.
What you'll learn in this episode:
- Scrum steps: pick product and team, prioritize backlog from Takt work steps, daily standup, sprint review and retrospective
- Last Planner levels: master, phase pull, make ready lookahead, weekly work, day planning
- Takt KPIs that obey production laws: work completion ratio, flow consumption area, buffer ratios, elementary classroom clarity over 80 percent
- Crash landing causes: pushing, increased inventory, out of flow, firefighting mode, personal lives expendable
- Controlled landing: maintain flow, consistent worker counts, optimize sequences, shorten batches, increase capacity
To recover you must focus on increasing system capacity not pushing work through limited capacity.
