Page 4: Workforce Strategies, Tactics, and Best Practices

Design for Safety

• Engineering is construction’s friend• Constructability – early and often• Early contractor involvement• Information sources – OSHA, CII and many more

Page 5: Workforce Strategies, Tactics, and Best Practices

Safety Performance Plans

• Owners must understand the advantage of the costs that will be required

• Involve the craft in the program, existing site conditions and reach out for their help and advice

• Develop an entire team to make safety a success from beginning to end

Productivity Change 2014 – 2015

Page 12: Workforce Strategies, Tactics, and Best Practices

Productivity FeedbackRecent contractor feedback suggests labor productivity in the 

Gulf Coast (past 1‐2 years) is suffering significantly… Budget increases up to 96%

Craft hour increases in excess of 200%

Headcount peaks over 300% greater than estimate

“Routinely seeing 2.4 – 2.5 productivity [rates in] Gulf Coast on jobs”

“2.1 productivity new average for Gulf Coast”

Is this the new productivity normal?

Who’s at fault – Craft workers?  Planning?  Poor Craft Mixes?

Can we do more work with fewer workers?
