Discussion between rounds:Difficulties with the system • Management Team: • What did you feel during the game? Were you busy? • Did you manage to implement your plan? Were you in control? • Drywall team: • Were you busy? • HVAC team • Were you busy? • Bottleneck, Cycle time, WIP, Push • What is the meaning of cycle time for apartment construction in real projects? • How would you improve the process?
Discussion after the second round • Management Team: • What did you feel during the game? Were you busy? • Did you manage to implement your plan? Were you in control? • Drywall team: • Were you busy? Was your productivity improved? • HVAC team • Were you busy? Was your productivity improved? • Bottleneck, Cycle time, WIP, Push • What is the meaning of cycle time for apartment construction in real projects? • How would you improve the process?
