About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

Digitization of the Last Planner System® (LPS) requires more than simply implementing technology. It depends on Change Makers and buy-in from the Last Planners to make tech implementation, adoption, and optimization drive meaningful and sustained improvement.

In this session, you will hear from industry leaders who have successfully guided their teams through this journey using Touchplan®. They will share how their organizations progressed using a Walk, Jog, Run methodology to navigate the stages of digital LPS adoption:


  • Walk: Building the foundation for collaborative planning by establishing clear process expectations, supported by basic digital practices to improve reliability and reduce coordination waste.


  • Jog: Strengthening team participation and refining production planning routines, while leveraging digital data to improve decision-making, increase engagement, and build confidence in the process.


  • Run: Advancing organizational and portfolio-wide Lean practices by using advanced analytics and cross-project data to optimize performance, forecast risk, and inform strategic decision-making.
