Buildings, roads, dams, electrical grids… are with us for a very long time and linked to the success and failure of just about everything… education, health, national security, transportation, habitat, sustainability, national and local economies and more. That said, we are not acting as stakeholders of our built infrastructure.

BEST VALUE & COMPLIANT Construction Planning, Procurement, And Project Delivery can be deployed and managed today using a robust suite LEAN tools and services. The easiest way to describe LEAN and BEST VALUE construction, is to note what it is not. A concentrated effort at improving owner education and leadership is need.

OpenJOC, a term coined by Four BT, LLC, is the deployment of Job Order Contracting based upon LEAN construction delivery best management practices. OpenJOC leverages processes, standardized cost data , and technology to drive win-win relationships among all project participants and on-time, on-budget, quality construction outcomes.
