IMPLEMENTING PROJECT IMPLEMENTING PROJECT CONSTRUCTABILITYCONSTRUCTABILITYConstructability is the integration of

expertise into all phases of the project. For Improving factors such as:Cost Schedule QualityProfitabilitySafetyCustomer satisfaction and overall objectives.

IMPLEMENTING PROJECT IMPLEMENTING PROJECT CONSTRUCTABILITYCONSTRUCTABILITYThe proper use of the knowledge

gained by participants such as:Managers Designers/Production Managers Site shop floor and on site workersOther contributors Learning from their past

experience increases the level of productivity and overall success.

IMPLEMENTING PROJECT IMPLEMENTING PROJECT CONSTRUCTABILITYCONSTRUCTABILITYConstructability must be used at

key points in the project life cycle. This includes:

in the planning phase;early in the design phase; prior to the procurement phase;prior to the mobilization phase

for construction.

IMPLEMENTING PROJECT IMPLEMENTING PROJECT CONSTRUCTABILITYCONSTRUCTABILITYConstructability process

considers a detailed review of: Design drawings; Models; Specifications; and construction processes.

IMPLEMENTING PROJECT IMPLEMENTING PROJECT CONSTRUCTABILITYCONSTRUCTABILITY

The purpose of the constructability review

is to identify the following items:• Design errors (both material

selection or dimensions)• Un clear specifications• Unnecessary work• Complexity that does not serve

the project objectives

IMPLEMENTING PROJECT IMPLEMENTING PROJECT CONSTRUCTABILITYCONSTRUCTABILITY• Project features-difficult and

very costly to construct.• Project complexity- that

exceed the capability of industry to properly build.

• Project features that are difficult to interpret and will be hard to accurately bid.

QUALITY MANAGEMENT QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM(QMS)SYSTEM(QMS)The construction industry has

embraced the ISO 9000 standard since its inception.

The QMS has become the benchmark for successful construction companies.

The QMS has also become the benchmarking for successful construction companies worldwide.

JIT & Quality Management JIT & Quality Management SystemsSystemsThe existing quality management

systems -ISO 9000 should include JIT.

It is practical to integrate ISO 9000 (20 clauses) with the 7 JIT concepts

Successful firms are using 7 concepts of JIT with ISO 9000 quality management systems in order to improve their productivity.

JIT & Quality Management JIT & Quality Management SystemsSystemsTo have high quality product and high

productivity is a challenging task for project management team.

All large construction companies have already established quality management systems within their organisation to meet ISO 9000 requirements.

Some companies are implementing the concepts of JIT and ISO 9000 separately.

JIT & Quality Management JIT & Quality Management SystemsSystemsBoth ISO 9000 and JIT objectives are: 1) high productivity 2) perfect product each time and

every time.ISO has no any clause related to

project time. It is a tool for productivity

improvement.
