Episode Synopsis
Production Laws That Will Make or Break Your Project Most construction schedules collapse not because of hard work, but because teams ignore the unshakable laws of production. In this episode, Jason Schroeder breaks down the five critical production laws adapted from manufacturing to construction Little's Law, the Law of Effective Variation, Bottlenecks, Kingman's Formula, and Brooks's Law and shows how they apply directly to your project. You'll discover: · Why smaller zones and leveled work accelerate your project · How variation quietly kills schedules and how to absorb it · Why bottlenecks appear (and keep reappearing) until you fix them the right way · How adding more labor can actually slow you down · The lean principles that make Takt Planning unstoppable If you like the Elevate Construction podcast, please subscribe for free and you'll never miss an episode.
