TrueNorth Brings "Lean"
to 1. LeanBuilding Blitz The guiding principles of Lean have transformed every industry they touch. Lean removes waste from systems and processes, and that removes cost. TrueNorth is so successful in applying these principles to homebuilding that we guarantee results in writing: Pay us only if we perform. Check the results of 43 straight LeanBuilding Blitz sessions where we average over $8,300 per house in identified savings. Our LeanBlitz programs are scaled to builders of 5 units to 1,500, starter home to high end luxury; there's one sure to fit your need. Buying Groups and Associations: ask us about our one-day workshop for your members. 2. LeanDesign Charrette Three new plans? Three elevations each? Designed by a multi-award-winning architect? ZERO net cost? TrueNorth has teamed up with TK Design & Architecture in a radical new approach: using over 1,000 checkpoints gleaned from Lean experiences, develop new plans to improve your top line with new product and new sales, while improving your bottom line by reducing your cost to build. Get rid of "built in" unnecessary cost. Apply TrueNorth Lean Filters in the design stage. This is one charrette that pays for itself in the first couple units built, and which generates additional profit ever after. For a quick overview, click here. |
