Who is GO Productivity?
• We help companies realize the power of productivity and the
incredible role it can play in improving operations, from the top floor
to the bottom line.
• As non-partisan ‘trusted advisors’ or coaches we work to build the
internal capacity within organizations
• Work with partners to address productivity challenges including
operations, innovation, leadership & collaboration
• Non-profit organization, industry board led
As of October 1, 2011, Productivity Alberta was established as a
private, not-for-profit corporation
As of October 1, 2014, GO Productivity is a national private, notfor-profit corporation
How do we see productivity?
We see ‘productivity’ as being made up
of operational excellence, innovation and
leadership combined with a collaborative
culture and the strategic integration of
these elements
• The means to extend the resourcefulness of your business
• About unleashing the potential of people, resources, and time
• About working SMARTER – not harder
Productivity = Resourcefulness
Productivity Is NOT Necessarily About…
•
•
•
•
•
Downsizing
Eliminating jobs
Replacing people with machines
Short-term improvements
Cost-cutting initiatives
Productivity Is Actually About…
•
•
•
•
Meeting customer needs
Making work more satisfying for all
Increasing profits
Using less effort, space, equipment,
time
Why does productivity matter to
Nunavut & Northwest Territories?
• Slowing investment in mining and downturn in commodity
prices
• Growing competition from outside of the North
• Attraction, retention and shortage of skilled labour
• Multi generational workforce
• Lack of investment in technology, innovation & growth
• Increasing costs of transportation
• Access to new markets
• Working in the business not on the business
• Quality & safety
All these factors impact our ability
to compete and to be productive

Productivity and the North
• Yukon, N.W.T. and Nunavut had a labour productivity decline
in 2013 (for the third year in a row)
– Still one of the strongest labour productivity rates in the county
• N.W.T. GDP increase by 3.5% in 2013
– Business gross capital formation up 14.8% driven by construction and
investment in non-residential structures
– Drop in labour is led by declining mining industry (35% of GDP), and
diamond industry maturation and declining production
• Nunavut GDP increase by 11.2% in 2013
– Relatively small economy size and operations like the Meadowbank
gold mine, and construction of Mary River iron ore site (increase in
non-residential structure)
– Labour productivity declined by 1.3% as more were hours worked
relative to GDP increase

About Lean
Eliminate Waste
Create Value
Customer
Cash, time & Space
Lean construction is not the same as lean production
(it’s is bigger then that!)

Why Lean won’t work in construction
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
We are too busy
Lean is just for manufacturing
We don’t make cars
Lean won’t work for us
We are different (and special)
We tried that
We make enough money
We don’t need to change

Principle 1:
Define the customer value
Importance of Voice of the Customer
• What will customers pay for? After all they “pay the
bills”, so understand their needs
• Without customers, there is no business
• Customers define the “playing field”
• To be more profitable, you have to convince your
customers to…
– Buy more of your product or service
– Pay more for your product or service
– Serve their needs more efficiently
Customers can be in many places

Step 2

Internal Customers:
External Customers:
•
•

• Sales
• Engineering
• Manufacturing

Supplier
Management
Shareholders
Employees
Buyers
Users
Dealers & Distributors
Bystanders

Principle 2:
Capture the value (chain)

Modular Construction & Pre-fabrication
Collaboration & Integrated Project Delivery (IPD)
Scheduling and Pull Planning
Building Information Modeling (BIM)
Work placement & Kanban
Takt time and level loading
Principle 4: Make it better
Tools to make it better
•

Find and remove the waste (always)

DMAIC or PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act / Deming cycle)
A3 Methodology / problem solving
Principle 5: Rinse & Repeat

Lean is about Continuous Improvement:
Don’t accept that failures “just happen”
Look for trends and root causes and fix them.
Working around problems or planning buffer time
into work is a waste – don’t accept it!
• Tough on issues – not people
• Optimize the project not the parts
Take back to site (or office)
•

•
Lean won’t happen overnight
Start with the small stuff – think 1% improvement
You can’t contract behavior
Mistakes are ok*
Get the right people (fit and values)
Measure, measure, measure
Concepts over tools
