COAA Workface Planning Model: Developed by the COAA Workface Planning Committee based on interviews with constructors, engineering firms, and owners to establish best practices. A set of ISO like guidelines to help companies establish effective Workface Planning Systems.

New Paradigms • System turnover drives construction • Construction drives engineering and procurement • Optimizing the system is the goal - not optimizing the subsystems • You can’t optimize an unstable system • Constraints must be satisfied before work is released • Focusing on processes drives improved performance • Data has the potential to generate great value
