Construction projects -
On schedule with Takt time.
By using Takt time and Mestamaster in your construction project, you can significantly reduce your project length and scheduling risks.
Some projects report up to 50% reductions in repetitive project sections, and up to 20% reduction on the overall project timeline.
Waiting times and blocked areas are delaying your project
Traditional project schedule typically plans tasks for large areas in a linear sequence. This means that either no tasks can start until the previous one is complete, or there is a risk of collisions between teams.
This can lead to situations where some areas are ready, but waiting for the next team to come in. Or one team blocks too many spaces by trying to complete too large of an area of the worksite at the same time, preventing other teams from starting their work.
Takt time reduces idle time and increases predictability
Takt time construction methods schedule tasks in smaller, more manageable chunks - generally splitting them by worksite areas.
This has a wide range of advantages, but primarily it will allow you to detect issues in the schedule much earlier, increase predictability about when a space is free for teams to continue their work, and reduce on idle or blocked spaces in your worksite.
To get the full benefits of Takt time, you need the right tools to plan and monitor your worksite progress

What Our Clients Say
“Before Mestamaster, I ran around the construction site all day, up to 20,000 steps a day. With Mestamaster, the number of steps has dropped to 12,000, and I can spend my day more efficiently planning my work. "

"I am gonna use Mestamaster again as Mestamaster and Mikko did a very good job here, I would estimate that the one week takt trimmed the schedule about 10-15% on the part of work inside apartments."
Tauno Hiltunen
Exec. supervisor, Lujatalo
"With such a clear repeatability, traditional production methods could not have achieved the same results in quality or economy. (...) There is a clear benefit to the client with transparent monitoring of the work."
