    Motivation and Means: How and Why IPD and Lean Lead to Success
    (Lean Construction Institute and Integrated Project Delivery Alliance, 2016) Cheng, Renee; Johnson, Andrea
    The case studies discussed in the report demonstrate how new and innovative practices, techniques, and strategies make a significant difference in project outcomes. The report explores ten projects from around the US and Canada: four Healthcare projects, two Medical Office Buildings, and four Office Buildings, including both new and renovation with scopes ranging from $9.6M to $119M. All projects utilized an integrated form of agreement and employed Lean design and construction techniques. Each project case study provides a detailed deep dive in 24 areas across five major categories: Context, Legal + Commercial, Leadership and Management, Processes and Lean, Alignment and Goals, and Building Outcomes. The major finding of this report is a striking uniformity of success for all the teams in this study, regardless of project type, scope, geographic location, or previous experience with IPD and Lean. The second finding was that the powerful complementary strength of IPD and Lean supports success.
