Capital Projects Consulting
Strategies for optimal project management and execution
Undertaking Capital Projects means making significant, long-term investments to improve assets. Crucial for boosting growth, these investments, like constructing new plants or warehouses or developing new production lines or equipment, are vital for progress.
Our Capital Project Consulting integrates cross-functional collaboration and proactive risk management to drive measurable success and long-term value.
Effectively managing and implementing such projects demands the adoption of methodologies that prioritize excellence by reducing life cycle costs, ensuring timely and quality delivery, and implementing robust risk management. The KAIZEN™ “Capital Project Excellence” approach enhances the company’s return on investment and promotes a culture of continuous improvement.

What types of support do we offer?
In today’s fast-paced and ever-evolving economic landscape, the pressure to deliver complex projects swiftly, efficiently, and sustainably has never been greater. At the Kaizen Institute, our approach to Capital Project Excellence begins with a phase of Strategy Design. During this initial phase, we develop a comprehensive roadmap tailored to each project’s unique challenges and goals. This roadmap typically encompasses three types of activities that we specialize in at the Kaizen Institute: Project Management Workshops, Lean Project Development, and Lean Project Management.
Project Management Workshops
Use lean capital project management methodologies to streamline processes and improve communication and risk management across capital projects.
This approach ensures that projects are delivered on time, within budget, and meet quality standards.
Lean Project Development
Take advantage of our improvement workshops to refine the project development across all phases of capital projects, from initiation to commissioning.
This approach will help reduce delivery lead times and costs, improve quality, and ensure a vertical startup of the deliverable, whether a factory, equipment or something else.
Lean Project Management
Our team of project experts will help you increase efficiency by integrating your team on an “as needed” basis to provide project essential services such as: Overall Project Management, Project Coordination, Estimating, Planning, Procurement, Cost Control, Risk Management, Commissioning & Start-up.
