Old Dawg Takt Session
This was great! I have also added some slides directly from a Hoots training session that gives clear step-by-step instructions on how to build a Takt Plan. Let's do a follow-up in 60 days so we can do a bit of a show and tell with our progress. Shout out to Tom, Jason and Boone who, to nobody's surprise, had great input and wisdom to impart on the rest of us. Thanks to Denver for initiating this and bringing a real, concrete challenge to the Old Dawgs.

@Tom Arrigo agreed! That’s my main selling point to my organization, is that it’s to make it more visual and easier for the trade partners to understand and interact with. Though I still get a ton of pushback from the P6 Brigade that look at it and don’t want to take the 5 minutes to understand and see how much easier it is to read.

I had a little trouble with my phone connection, but what I did hear was great discussion and sharing.

Engagement Incentives
Just wanted to provide some info in case some aren’t aware. The more engagement you get on your posts/comments here, the more access you gain to some really awesome material courtesy of @Adam Hoots. I’ve been diving into this most recent tier which includes taped courses from Clemson. College level courses in construction management is some formal learning I’ve never received so this is an incredible resource!

Agreed Nick! I’ve been slacking but am looking forward to the systems thinking class once at level 3. Go get it !

Takt Contract Language
Old Dawgs! I am in the middle of writing contracts and I am interested on how those of you utilizing Takt refer to schedule and Executive Summaries in the contract. Feels sticky, I almost want to completely get rid of the Executive Summary but I have been in litigation before where it comes up. What language can I use to navigate this and lean more heavily on the Takt Plan contractually?

@Jeff Reilly I think that would depend on the owner letting go of CPM. I may be wrong, but I would think that as long as a CPM schedule was involved with your owner contract it should pass to the trade partner contracts as well. Yet, you could still add the takt language to those subcontracts.

8 Waste exercise - I need your input!
I am creating a Family Feud style game to teach the 8 waste. I need to survey the people! Please take 5 minutes to answer what are the top types of waste you see in construction. When I am finished with creating the exercise I will share with the group. The Survey...says? https://forms.office.com/r/E3yQqDvwHJ I also included Jason Schroeder's 8 waste video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrsQDc6crbE
