“Advances in Lean Design & Construction Practice from New England, across the US, and Abroad” full-day event

Tuesday, July 19, 2016 from 8am-5pm

Joseph B. Martin Conference Center
77 Avenue Louis Pasteur, Boston, MA 02115

Founded in 1993, the IGLC (www.iglc.net) is an international network of researchers from practice and academia in architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) who feel that the practice, education, and research of the AEC industry have to be radically renewed in order to respond to the global challenges ahead.

Annual conferences are the main activity of the IGLC, and their locations rotate amongst the continents. IGLC was held in Brazil in 2013, Norway in 2014, and Australia in 2015. Next year, IGLC will be held in Crete and there will be a proposal to hold IGLC in India in 2018.

Here is your chance to participate in the international dialogue about the lessons learned from recent challenges and solutions that have emerged in Lean Design and Construction practice! Lean practices have started to take hold in New England as RFPs for public and private projects have increasingly been asking AEC companies to discuss how they may use Lean tools and techniques to assist in project management. Speakers from the Owner, Architect, Construction Manager / General Contractor, and Trade Contractor perspectives will discuss their Lean practices in the office and on projects in New England, across the US, and abroad. We hope you will join us to hear the following diverse perspectives!
