  • Mastering the Last Planner System with Victor Ortiz Part 4

    Mastering the Last Planner System with Victor Ortiz Part 4
    2025/10/01

    What if the biggest barrier to Lean success isn’t the trades or the tools — but the way we think about planning itself? 🤔

    In this episode of The EBFC Show, Victor Ortiz and host Felipe Engineer-Manriquez continue their deep dive into the Last Planner System®, uncovering the principles and practices that separate sticky notes on a wall from a true production control system. From flawed procurement processes to the hidden impact of variation and buffers, they reveal why most teams miss the point — and how to get it right.

    📌 Key Takeaways You’ll Gain:

    • The five Lean principles that anchor Last Planner to true customer value
    • Why dependency + variation create traffic jams on projects 🚦
    • How to use buffers (capacity, inventory, and time) to protect flow
    • The 3S criteria (Size, Sequence, Soundness) for defining reliable tasks
    • Why constraint analysis is non-negotiable for reliable commitments
    • The five levels of organizational change every Lean leader must navigate

    If you’ve ever wondered why Last Planner works brilliantly in some teams but fizzles in others, this episode offers the clarity you’ve been waiting for.

  • CBA - Pros & Cons: Better Decisions with Paz Arroyo

    CBA - Pros & Cons: Better Decisions with Paz Arroyo
    2025/09/01

    What if the real problem on your project isn’t budget, scope, or schedule — but how decisions are actually made? 🤯

    In this episode of The EBFC Show, Felipe Engineer-Manriquez is joined by Dr. Paz Arroyo — author of Building Decisions, CBA evangelist, and DPR's culture of quality champion — to unravel the mess behind most construction decisions and reveal a better path forward.

    Together, they dive into the science and soul of sound decision-making with Choosing by Advantages (CBA) — a powerful, underused method that helps teams cut through bias, confusion, and decision fatigue with clarity and respect.

    🎯 What you’ll learn in this episode:

    • Why “pros and cons” are a trap for critical thinking 😬
    • How CBA helps teams align on what really matters — and why
    • The human (and hilarious) side of decision-making in big families, big projects, and cell phone shopping 📱
    • Real stories from mega projects where CBA shifted the game
    • How to make durable, collaborative, and transparent decisions
    • Why most teams aren’t taught to separate value from cost — and what that costs them 💸
    • How CBA supports #respectforpeople by including every voice in the room

    💡 Whether you’re building skyscrapers, choosing a structural system, or just arguing over iPhone vs. Android — this episode will change how you think about thinking.

    📘 Grab the book “Building Decisions” and dig deeper into practical, field-tested ways to apply CBA on your project.

    🧠 Want to make better decisions that stick? This episode is for builders, leaders, owners, and anyone tired of flip-flopping, second-guessing, or defaulting to “we’ve always done it this way.”
