CORNERSTONE FOR WORKFACE PLANNING

Facilitated by Geoff Ryan, P.M.P.

Designed for Owners, Engineering, Procurement or Construction management teams who want to implement Workface Planning.
 

Workface Planning is a system that enables dedicated construction planners to produce detailed construction plans that are free of constraints. This process was researched and developed in Alberta (2001-2005) and has been identified as an industry best practice by the Construction Owner Association of Alberta (COAA) and by the Construction Industry Institute (CII). The process is now being applied on mega projects across North America, Asia, the Middle East and Australia.
 

Workface Planning optimizes project performance and delivers predictable results in construction productivity, quality and safety through the sequential execution of the project schedule. Upon completion of this seminar, participants can expect to understand the Why, What and How of Workface Planning by participating in classroom simulations and through a detailed review of a standard execution procedure.
