Ep.1112 - Roadblocks & Constraints in Detail
In this podcast we cover:
- The definition and difference between roadblocks and constraints.
- Why we must dig deeper into constraints.
- Taking it from theory to execution.
In this episode, Jason takes a deeper look at the critical difference between roadblocks and constraints in construction. Too often, project teams focus only on the issues that appear in front of them without addressing the systemic factors that define overall project performance. Jason explains how roadblocks can be removed ahead of time while constraints require redesign and optimization of the production system itself. Drawing on examples from lean principles, theory of constraints, and practical project experience, this episode shows how leaders can shift their perspective to unlock flow, improve collaboration, and deliver predictable results.
