What is Agile Construction?

Agile Construction is a way of doing business adapted to construction jobsites, born from agile manufacturing and project management, mostly used in manufacturing production and software developing teams.

Like the Toyota Production System, Agile construction is a system that relies on input from the source of the work information, both up front for planning the project, as well as throughout the life of a project for real-time customer feedback. The real-time input produces real-time measurements of productivity. It is an iterative and incremental method of managing the design and build activities.

This means that each time the process is repeated some changes are made to make the process better. Changes for the better are kept and for the worse are discarded.
