In construction, no scheduling system is one-size-fits-all not CPM, not Last Planner, not even Takt. But what if there was a framework that could work across nearly any project milestone with just team collaboration and a simple board? In this episode, Jason introduces Scrum, an agile planning system built on transparency, daily standups, and constant feedback that can transform how your teams plan, execute, and actually win on site instead of just surviving.
What you'll learn in this episode:
- Why traditional scheduling systems fall short and how Scrum creates true team collaboration without requiring scheduling expertise.
- The 12 practical steps to implement Scrum on your construction projects, from creating a backlog to running sprint retrospectives.
- How to use a simple four-column Scrum board to move tasks from planning to completion and gain on schedules instead of barely meeting them.
- Why Scrum works across milestones while other systems require specialized knowledge and constant adjustment.
- How daily standups, sprint reviews, and scoring systems create a process of constant improvement that makes teams faster and happier.
Stop worrying about being behind start planning to win.
