Lean Capital Project Delivery

Putting dollar values on project outcomes.

Published April 2008

The next step in lean thinking about capital projects will involve putting dollar values on capital project outcomes and making output value part of the Total Cost of Ownership decision-making process. The leaders for change in the area of capital project delivery processes will have to be the owners, because only the owners have the money clout and financial motivation (lower costs) to make change happen.
