Rework Hurts People and Projects

Join Lean Construction ANZ for a webinar on Rework Hurts People and Projects.

At this ground-breaking webinar, international construction rework expert Frontline Coach Director John Morrison will present on the causes, costs and impacts of rework and how you can take specific actions to reduce rework.

John will share the results of his collaborative research with world renowned construction academic Professor Peter Love on Australian construction projects worth over $32 billion which shows:

  • a 70% correlation between workers attending to rework and safety incidents
  • rework is eroding profit margins by up to 30%

John will be supported on the webinar by Lendlease Head of Quality Andrew Harrison and Laing O’Rourke Program Quality Lead Catherine McTigue with the South East Program Alliance Melbourne Level Crossing Removal Project who are both achieving outstanding delivery outcomes with their teams.

The webinar will cover:

  1. The causes and impacts of rework on construction projects
  2. Industry-proven methods to mitigate rework with real case studies
  3. Unpacking industry system and cultural blockers to reduce rework

 

WHY? – Rework Hurts People & Projects

Workers + Rework = Increased safety risks

  •  39% of injuries from 379 reported incidents on a five year Australian Water Infrastructure Program occurred during rework
  • There is a 70% correlation between rework and safety incidents

Rework costs far more $ than you think

  • The direct costs of Construction rework eroded the profit margins of an Australian Tier One contractor by 30% over an eight year period
  • If you add in the indirect costs of rework, contractor profit margins can be completely eroded
