lcmd in use
After 6 years of experience with analog Last Planner, project manager Michael Boss used lcmd for the first time from the planning phase to completion.
Core Features:
- Cycle planning: Partial structuring of buildings (A, B, C), timed areas by level
- Collaboration: Weekly meetings with 8-10 trades, 6-week exports as minutes
- Remote control: Project management from Siegen for construction site in Dresden
- Monitoring: Dashboard with progress bar and evaluation of key figures
Project success
- Completion of the entire project, including outdoor facilities, by December 31, 2025
- Completion on schedule despite delays in obtaining building permits
- High level of acceptance among all project participants
Outlook
The successful FES project serves as a pilot for the company-wide implementation of lcmd at OTTO QUAST - the structural engineering areas and the Dresden branch are planned.

I see the biggest advantage in the fact that I can simply immediately overview the overall process plan in all possible scaling variants and filter variants without having to work with paper printouts and complex post-it wall panels. The online availability and the ability to use and adapt the plan in video conferences also make my work much easier.
