PREPARE WORK AREAS ADEQUATELY For maximum productivity, your aim should always be to keep all the work moving at the pace required to meet your deadlines or faster. Loading areas should be at least two truck lengths to allow quick loading cycles and truck exchanges.
LAY OUT THE JOB-SITE FOR EFFICIENCY A lot of time is invested in job planning, which means there is one and only one optimal site layout. For example, if materials are stored a long walking distance from the work, hours of non-productive labour time will result from all those long walks.

CHALLENGING THE WORK PROCESS When your team is empowered to challenge work processes, you get real-time process improvement from a variety of perspectives. Encourage them to ask why the job is being done the way it is; what is the best time to do a job; what is the best equipment; who are best qualified; and whether there is the required focus.
