What It's About

As labor shortages, the pandemic and a variety of other factors contribute to a lengthening of construction cycle times, builders are watching profits decline. Homes under construction sit idle for weeks as material suppliers increase lead times, and subcontractors struggle to keep up with demand. Worse, homes are delivered late to customers, with long repair lists caused by a "race to the finish line" to get homes completed. In this advanced session, zero in on the root causes of these issues and learn strategies to reduce cycle times by eliminating the "empty house days" that are making schedules unreliable and unrealistic.
