1 Lean Practices from Competition through Construction UCSF MISSION HALL PROJECT RUDOLPH & SLETTEN, INC WRNS STUDIO

2 Introductions RUDOLPH & SLETTEN, INC Gary Taylor Senior Project Executive Kelli Quinn Senior Project Manager WRNS STUDIO Sam Nunes, AIA Partner Scott Gillespie, AIA Project Architect WALTERS & WOLF Paul Kendall Senior Project Manager

3 University of California, San Francisco Mission Bay Campus SITE OF MISSION HALL

4 UCSF Mission Hall Design-Build Competition Public Contract Best Value (only allowed at UCSF at the time) Not Lean Contract - Incentives Included milestone and PPC tracking Required teams to utilize Lean methodologies to track decisions & visualize progress Tools desired by Owner as method of communication to monitor project status $94M and 266,000 GSF Open September 2014 to support new UCSF Medical Center and start of academic year

5 Forming Design-Build Team Building on preexisting relationships Knowledge of client through previous project together as partners UCSF Parking Garage Bringing in Design- Build subcontractors and trade partners with experience as a team, and on the campus Previous lean project experience UCSF Mission Bay Medical Center Parking Garage Completed 2012

6 The RFP: The Voice of the Client Program Site Schedule Budget The Four Primary Constraints of Designing and Building

7 Responsibilities Matrix Developed and agreed upon by all sub-consultants and sub-trade partners Established a visual depiction of the interconnectedness of the work relative to the RFP requirements and priorities

8 Competition Workplan Developed and agreed upon by all sub-consultants and trade partners Established simple visual representation of the work effort over 10 week time horizon

9 Target Cost Model 14% over UCSF established budget Establishment of an alignment strategy of cost to the University s budget and programmatic priorities

10 The RFP: The Voice of the Client Program Site Schedule Budget The Four Primary Constraints of Designing and Building

16 Document Structure 450 Pages of aspirational, technical and performance criteria. References to numerous campus standards documents. Contained tiered approach to criteria - baseline, better, best. Criteria items split into different performance categories. Scoring categorized differently than criteria.

17 Scoring Information

18 Target Value Design Process 10 weeks to develop proposal Team analyzed owner criteria against scoring categories to develop winning formula. Challenged aspirational language and technical criteria to strike balance in budget, and create best value. Explored design, cost and schedule impacts with input of all team members in compressed timeframe. Sought cohesive, integrated solutions to meet criteria and maximize value.

19 Target Value Design Process EXAMPLES OF CHALLENGES: Master plan / Massing Atrium / Collegial spaces Structure / Immediate Occupancy Materiality / Cladding Design

20 Target Value Design Process MASTER PLANNING / MASSING: 85 height limit Little variation in height throughout campus Defined envelope of campus master plan Atrium and collegial spaces desired.

21 Target Value Design Process MASTER PLANNING / MASSING: Investigated compressing floor to floor to add additional story within 85 limit Atriums require extensive smoke control and commissioning time Atriums underutilized on campus. Activate two-story spaces with communal functions to gain efficiency and ease budget and schedule pressures

22 Target Value Design Process STRUCTURE AND IMMEDIATE OCCUPANCY: Building use tied to adjacent new Hospital - extensive requirements for all systems. Site Specific Criteria tied to combining multiple seismic events. Soft soil deep foundations required Strategy of rigid structure would likely be preferred solution from seismic review panel.

23 Target Value Design Process STRUCTURE AND IMMEDIATE OCCUPANCY: Steel frame beneficial to budget and schedule, but not rigid. Concrete frame more expensive and schedule impact due to back and reshore process. Concrete would likely score highest. Allow compressed floors to increase number of stories. Multiple impacts to evaluate with team members.

24 Target Value Design Process EXTERIOR CLADDING DESIGN: Model of Architectural and Urban Design 1600 points! Challenge to match quality of existing campus buildings / durability with budget. Other value decisions to raise perceived score compressing budget and schedule on cladding design. Engaging trade partner skilled in process to develop design

25 Target Value Design Process EXTERIOR CLADDING DESIGN: Adopted construction strategies and committed to particular form, materials and fabrication techniques. Quest to develop highest value solution for project, that finds the sweet spot between efficiency and expression. Detailed knowledge of process allowed design team to make quick decisions weighed against cost, schedule and aesthetic concerns.

26 After Award/ Design Phase Team began working to formalize tools & output, some challenges in moving forward pre-existing formats to suit this project Normal & Lean running as parallel processes time to implement in challenging design schedule Big room started in WRNS office until trailer location completed. Evolving process as team expanded Training & continuous improvement

27 Cladding Design Development Timeline

28 Exterior Cladding Development WALTERS & WOLF LEAN JOURNEY Continuous improvement on global scale One-piece-flow, identify and eliminate waste UCSF DESIGN/BUILD GOALS Streamline project design and activities to meet customer needs Standardize GFRC panel design allowed for flexibility in production Pre-assembled windows/panels installed, glazed and caulked in plant

29 Cladding Development Lean Principles GFRC panels 12 x 30 in Walters & Wolf yard

30 Cladding Development Lean Principles Pre-assembled window units aligned and stacked in sequence of installation Lifting/installing (6) units in lieu of one

31 Skin Fabrication-Production-Installation Standardization in design, procurement and fabrication allowed the flexibility to accommodate the customer s accelerated schedule needs Just in time fabrication Visual control

32 Panel Installation

33 Panel Installation 372 panels hung in 5 weeks

34 Visual Scheduling - MASTER SCHEDULE

35 Lean Tools Used To Tackle Our Schedule Challenges Big Room Collaboration Takt Time Analysis Pull Scheduling Last Planner Visual Management Tools Visual Scheduling Quality Management Prefabrication strategies

36 Collaboration in the Big Room

37 Takt Time Analysis

38 Pull Scheduling Excavation thru grade beams Waterproofing thru SOG Going vertical Skin & Roof Tenant Improvements (typical floor) MEP startup & commissioning

39 Last Planner

40 Visual Management POWERFUL FORM OF COMMUNICATION FOR ENTIRE WORKFORCE Site logistics Safety hazards Safety awareness Safety tips

41 Visual Management Evolution Example of Quality Control in-slab electrical distribution, material staging coordination

42 Visual Management Evolution Got away from the Traditional Approach 6 WEEK ROLLING SCHEDULE

43 Visual Scheduling Our version of the 6 week rolling schedule that easily communicated to the project team

44 Develop an Integrated Quality Program OUR GOAL WAS SIMPLE: Set up an integrated quality program, so everyone is working on the same platform and tracking in real time SOFTWARE LEVERAGED FOR THE PROJECT Microsoft Excel (initially used before leveraging more powerful integrated software solutions) BlueBeam & BlueBeam Studio BIManywhere BOX Cloud Network

45 Early Stage of Quality Control

46 Quality Control Evolving Bring BIM model into field

47 Tracking Quality on the Fly

48 Full Transparency Quality Tracking

49 Lean Tools Produce Measurable Successes SUCCESSES Were able to build superstructure per our aggressive construction schedule Effective communication (from executives to all field labor) Were able to erect the exterior skin panels sooner

50 Lean Tools & Process Produce Measurable Successes Overall inspection pass rate

51 Lean Tools & Process Produce Measurable Successes Last Planner Tracking 84% average throughout construction

52 Conclusion Successes & challenges of meeting schedules Continuous improvements Value of Lean processes Measurable Successes
