Construction Planning – Last Planner® system is the primary planning tool employed by VEC. Our system of training employees and subcontractor/stakeholders is an invaluable tool for successful project delivery. As planning and scheduling are the primary tools for effective management – we use this process as the cornerstone of our operational delivery method. 75% of our Project resources side with LP® systems for complex project and communication resource support. Be genuine and honest – the rest takes care of itself.
