Company Overview
About Us
st
Lean Construction is a 21 century company, and prides itself in its highly effective and streamlined methodology
for conducting business. Prior to setting up in Nigeria, Lean Construction had initiated merger and buy-out talks
with Kabot Ventures Nigeria Limited. This merger with Kabot Ventures Nigeria Limited actualized in mid-2008, has
resulted in a synergy of an organization with, twenty-nine (29) years of Domestic experience

Lean Construction as the name implies is lean in executing its services and thereby carries very little overhead. This
results in cost savings, which we pass to our clients. Lean Construction articulates effectively the different
knowledge areas of Integrated Construction and Project management, these which include; scope management,
time management, cost management, quality management, human resource management, communications
management, risk management and procurement management

The Company

Core Purpose
Deliver world-class facility-related services for our clients' success

Delivery System/Services
There was a time when clients had internal resources from which they could draw for large construction projects

That is rarely the case today, as companies made the decision to focus on core competencies. They have divested
themselves of the people who had knowledge and expertise in peripheral areas. Lean Construction’s knowledge
and expertise in a variety of construction undertakings fill the void that has been created. As a result, irrespective
of the contracting arrangements a client chooses, they can be assured of topnotch quality with Lean Construction

Lean Construction has a quantitative and substantive base from which it operates in the competitive-bid market

We always track our projects and enter information on cost, productivity, value analysis and value engineering,
manpower, equipment, materials, procurement and schedule into our historical cost database. Our sophisticated

reporting and control systems give us the knowledge we need to keep our clients ahead of the game, no matter
which delivery system is chosen

Since there are numerous delivery systems available to owners today, it is necessary to review delivery systems
with clients. We listen carefully to our clients so we can make recommendations that will facilitate the
construction process efficiently and effectively. This helps the client to choose the delivery system that is best for
them leading to a more pleasant construction experience for everyone. Choosing the right delivery system lays the
foundation for a positive, long-term relationship

Through experience, we have discovered that certain delivery systems lend themselves to certain projects. By
thoroughly discussing a project with the client, we can determine together what the best plan of action is

Sometimes the decision is straightforward, sometimes it is not. But there are always delivery systems that can
work for your specific needs

The projects that demand the most soul searching are large programs that involve multiple structures. Suppose
you have a program that involves a material logistics center, an office, a body shop, a residential building and an
assembly shop. The best delivery system for the entire project may be different than the best delivery system for
each isolated building. Under these circumstances, what is best for the entire project takes precedence over what
may be ideal for individual units

Lean Construction can offer well thought-through suggestions and comments that help the client make the best
delivery system decision. The goal is to use the delivery system that will align individual elements so that overall
project goals and requirements can be met

Services
Pre-Construction Services
Through clarification of and commitment to project team goals, Lean Construction provides the project client and
architect with control of the project's schedule, budget and quality. This is accomplished with studies, expert
advice in construction means and methods and confirmation of the Lean Construction project team's
understanding of these goals with mockups, sample and investigations of existing product installations

Lean Construction believes that identification of team goals to be one of preconstruction's primary objectives. A
draft schedule incorporating these goals with the anticipated construction activities and entitlement process
displays logic relationships and anticipates potential team goal conflicts. The preconstruction schedule serves as
the road map for design, development, and decisions pertaining to project scope, budget and procurement. Thus,
the Lean Construction approach offers a controlled, effective use of preconstruction resources consistent with the
progress required to acquire government approvals needed to complete the project on time and under budget

General Construction Services
Lean Construction provides in-depth management and supervision of all of its projects, with hands-on involvement
by the company's principals and project supervisors from start to finish. In addition to general building, tenant
improvement and seismic retrofit services, Lean Construction also provides added value to clients with its ability to
self-perform structural and architectural concrete work, including forming, placing and finishing

With general contracting, Lean Construction always operates as the contractor. A project is bid based on the
expectations a client communicates to an architect. Lean Construction takes the drawings and specifications,
involves our estimating staff as well as a large number of subcontractors and suppliers and produces the best cost
and schedule for the project. All the numbers are based on the plans that are provided. If there are points of
disagreement as the project moves ahead due to changes or different interpretations of the plan, Lean
Construction works with the client and the architect to resolve them. General contracting has a potentially
adversarial side, which is avoided with newer style delivery systems

Lean Construction's process encompasses an information system for the project to coordinate the clients and
architect's goals. This comprehensive system includes numerous components ranging from scheduling, cost
control, quality control, procurement, billing, project meetings, project commissioning, project close-out and
warranty management

Construction Management Services
At Lean Construction, construction management services provide assurance to the client of a well-run, problem-
free job site. The team of experienced construction professionals provides cost control, scheduling coordination,
quality control and timely execution of plans throughout the project. Lean Construction's knowledge of local
building codes, life safety requirements, permitting and other local nuances in the construction process is critical

to the project's on-time and on-budget completion according to plan. The client’s interest is represented
throughout the project, from start to finish, ensuring schedule compliance, coordinating proper document control
and optimizing the owner’s investment in the project

With construction management, Lean Construction typically acts as an agent for the owner, helping to manage the
whole process. The owner pays a fee for this service as opposed to a markup on each item. This differs significantly
from general contracting

Under a construction management arrangement, all bids and information are submitted to the client. The client
and the Lean Construction’s manager decide together which subcontractor to use for the work. They are, in effect,
working as a team

With traditional construction management, all the subcontractors report to and are paid by the client. Lean
Construction is there to help make decisions on whom to use and manage those subcontractors during the
building process, eliminating time wasting for client

Program Management
When a client hires Lean Construction for program management, he essentially gets construction management
plus. The 'plus' can vary widely depending on what kind of building is being constructed. With an office or light
industrial building, there may be little difference between the two. Program management involves overseeing
much more than the construction of a facility. Lean Construction not only manages the construction site, it
manages all the equipment that goes inside the buildings. This involves considerably more work. As with
construction management, Lean Construction acts as an agent for the client and is paid a fee for services provided

Project Management
With Lean Construction when a client contracts for Project Management, the client gets all necessary coordination
to deliver the project on time, on schedule and on budget. Lean Construction works with the clients' consultants
i.e. Architects and Engineers processing all information and value engineering all the way while reporting directly
to the client. Under a Project Management arrangement, all bids and information are submitted to Lean
Construction. Lean Construction's Project Managers analyze and make recommendations, providing a best case
scenario to the client to aid in the decision making process

Lean Construction's Project Managers ensures that the contractors on site utilize an acceptable means and
methods while executing. Quality to Lean Construction’s Project Managers is first nature that is why the best
practices in the industry are employed always. We make sure our fees are in line so the client can sleep easy

Design/Build Services
In design/build projects, client’s contract directly with a single entity to provide both design and construction
services. Design/build services may be provided by a single firm, a team of experts or as a joint venture and can
offer clients with a number of advantages. Planning, design, engineering and construction responsibilities are
integrated under one single source, thereby facilitating project delivery by streamlining the overall process

Design/build project success is accomplished by applying a comprehensive project team management delivery
system. The Lean Construction team's experience covers a broad range of professional services, from consulting
and feasibility studies, to the complete design, engineering and construction expertise to fully implement a
project. The planners, designers, engineers and builders work in concert throughout the entire project towards the
common goal of providing a quality product at a competitive price

With design/build, Lean Construction has responsibility for all building elements. Under this delivery system, the
client contracts with Lean Construction for the services that are to be rendered. Lean Construction, in turn, has
contracts with the architect as well as all subcontractors. Lean Construction is contractually obligated for
everything

Design/build has many advantages. It offers the benefits of construction management and also relieves the client
of risks associated with construction. Because the architect works directly with Lean Construction, Lean
Construction assumes total responsibility for the design, engineering and management of the plans. If there are
glitches along the way as a result of mistakes in the drawings, Lean Construction has the responsibility to fix them

Lean Construction coordinates and supervises all members of the construction team to ensure quality construction
that is delivered on time and within budget. The design organization and construction team work together during
initial planning to spearhead substantial schedule savings through the overlap of design with construction. With
design/build, the client not only gets the construction services he wants, he gets peace of mind

Turnkey
If design/build delivers peace of mind, then full service (turn-key) really lets the client sleep well at night. Full
service covers the whole program. This not only includes design and building of the project, it also encompasses
design, procurement, installation and startup of all manufacturing processes and equipment. As with design/build,
the architect, engineers and all subcontractors report directly to Lean Construction. Lean Construction assumes
total responsibility for getting the project done

Projects
Lean Construction has built a wide range of projects, of all sizes, for a diverse client base. Each project
encompasses both the high quality and value that Lean Construction brings to each of its projects. These projects
include building renovations, institutional buildings, schools, office structures, hotels, studios, entertainment and
sports facilities, retail, restaurants, industrial buildings, road way work, wastewater work, and parking structures

Employment
We believe that talented, inspired and motivated people can accomplish extraordinary results. In order to
accomplish this goal, we must select, develop and retain the right people. We accomplish this through a constant
focus on building the “people culture” of our company, supported by a philosophy that the role of leadership is to
