Description
Productivity Driven – Delivery Transformation - Kāinga Ora Homes and Communities
In this Industry Insights webinar we will hear from Matthew Hulett who leads the Delivery Transformation Group at Kāinga Ora about their transformational Housing Delivery System (HDS). Matthew will be joined by Paul Jenkins, Operations Manager at Jennian Homes - who will talk about Jennian Homes' experience as a build partner working with the HDS.
The Delivery Transformation Group was formed from Project Velocity to help find ways to transform Kāinga Ora’s delivery systems starting with the Housing Delivery System (HDS) which is a delivery system designed to reduce design and construction times. This is a result of eliminating waste, rework and inefficiencies in the design, planning and construction phases, increasing our ability to deliver homes more efficiently.
Key areas of focus for the webinar will be:
We’ll hear what makes the system different, where things are at with the system and how we in the industry can learn and take away from what the group are doing.
Background:
In mid-2020 after a directive from Government to significantly scale up its build program, Kāinga Ora embarked on Project Velocity – a serious effort to figure out how to get better houses over the line quicker and cheaper.
Out of Project Velocity, Kāinga Ora developed what it refers to as the Housing Delivery System (HDS), which primarily front-foots logjams by getting everyone around the table at the beginning of a project, to make it clear exactly what is required of each party and when – sometimes down to the hour.
How does the Housing Delivery System work?
The HDS co-ordinates and tracks the thousands of tasks involved in planning and building a home, to schedule the work more efficiently and make the best use of resources.
Multi-disciplinary teams save time by troubleshooting on the spot rather than waiting for email replies
Every professional is together in one place from day one of the project - including architects, development and project managers, civil and structural engineers and landscape architects.
Professionals are asked to provide a realistic time they expect a task to take, called a ‘Reasonable Expectation’. This accuracy drives a reliable flow of work that enables predictable results, and detailed advanced planning reduces onsite delays.
Working side-by-side means different specialists understand how and why their individual tasks impact a housing project. Feedback from teams note the faster and effective in-person collaboration, the unique opportunity to learn regularly from other disciplines, the stronger sense of teamwork and overall efficiency and speed of project delivery.
Throughout the construction stages more predictable building timelines mean the sector can work with more confidence, securing building materials, crew and sub-contractors in advance.
