Jason gives a thorough overview of the Last Planner System as part of his onboarding series, walking through the full chain of schedule deliverables from the master schedule down to daily huddles. He explains how pull planning brings foremen and lead persons into refining the sequence, how the six-week make-ready look-ahead plan focuses on making activities truly ready (labor, materials, tools, equipment, information), and how the weekly work plan and daily huddles turn commitments into an executable plan tracked through percent plan complete. He closes by framing Last Planner not just as a set of tools, but as a culture shift, away from command-and-control leadership and toward genuinely listening to the people doing the work.
What you'll learn in this episode:
Is your project actually using the full chain of Last Planner deliverables, or just borrowing the name without the real collaboration behind it?
