Ep.256 - Mega Project Questions - Part 2

Jason finishes the mega project implementation series with part two. Main theme is everything is fractal, smaller patterns repeat at larger scale which means methods for medium projects can scale to billion dollar mega projects. Jason breaks down team metrics, morning worker huddles, trade partner training challenges, and composite cleanup crews. He emphasizes breaking large projects into smaller functional areas with dedicated leadership.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• Everything is fractal: Scale from small to large projects by breaking into functional segments
• Morning worker huddle non-negotiable: Even during COVID separate into smaller groups, no excuses
• No composite cleanup crews: If supers can't get trades to clean up themselves they can't do anything else
• Use runners for data collection: Senior super uses runners to gather status updates from field
• Train trade partners: Spend more time and be more intentional about team balance and coverage
• Break billion dollar projects into smaller areas: Assistant supers can make their segment remarkable

Next week topic is what assistant superintendents can do for lean when project superintendent doesn't get it.
