Description

Production comparison is the missing tool for self-perform crews. Map every 10-minute interval against every station for every micro crew throughout the day. Compare planned versus actual production at each interval. Find deviations, name the causes, fix them in tomorrow's morning huddle. Civil utilities and self-perform contractors must do this to make money.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• Production matrix: Excel grid, stations on left, every 10 minutes across top, track every micro crew position
• Micro crews: break full crew into sub-crews by area and task so no one is stacked or waiting
• Compare planned vs actual: if 8:20 task started at 8:40 and took twice as long, find out exactly why
• Morning huddle fixes: porta potty on site, lasers set up before excavator moves, materials pre-positioned, meeting timer set
• Self-perform truth: if crews are not making production and foremen are not doing this, we are losing money daily

Every time you look at your targeted production you have to figure out what actually happened, where were the deviations, and come up with corrective items for the next day.
