Takt Planning 101

Discover how Takt planning in construction can help you deliver projects faster, smoother, and with greater control.

Construction projects are complex. With multiple trades, tight schedules, and constant coordination, even the best teams struggle to maintain flow and predictability. That’s where Takt planning makes a real difference.

Takt Planning, a lean scheduling methodology inspired by manufacturing, introduces rhythm and structure to your delivery process. Instead of chaotic starts and stops, you create a steady, reliable flow of work across all zones of the site.

Our free eBook, Takt Planning 101, is your go-to guide for understanding and applying this powerful method. Whether you’re a project manager, planner, or site supervisor, this practical guide will help you take control of time, space, and sequence on-site.

The Digital Transformation of Big Rooms: ViBR and VisiLean

November 6, 2024

Sustainability in construction projects should originate in the design in order to reflect throughout the lifecycle of the project. However, in reality, the inefficiencies in project execution processes due to overtime, rework, and wasteful workflows contribute to significant carbon emissions across each project and the industry at large. A well-defined plan using VisiLean's cutting-edge technology that is built on lean construction principles and tools will help overcome these inefficiencies and lead to a swift and sustainable execution of a project.
