Description
Agile Construction® for the Electrical Contractor provides the tools and guidance needed to transform a traditional, reactive project management style to a new, proactive, profitable, and productive business management model – one that can quickly respond to changing industry needs and remain a profitable enterprise, even during the toughest of times. In this groundbreaking book, Dr. Daneshgari applies proven managerial techniques from other industries to electrical construction through the introduction of Agile Construction® – a scientifically-based tracking system based on jobsite dynamics and the bottom-line impact of the three sources of cost drivers: money, material, and manpower. This practical and accessible guide to improving operating systems and efficiencies is a must-have for construction company owners, CEOs, project managers, and supervisors with its clear set of practical tools, processes and tips for improving productivity. Since the first edition we have continued to research, learn, and develop new applications based on the same Agile Construction® principles. In the Second Edition we continue to improve and refine the processes and tools for Making Productivity Visible to Everyone®.
