Project Rework Reduction Tool

This tool targets reducing overall project direct cost of redoing work. Supported by research, this tool targets the highest factors causing rework on a project by conducting project assessments at key points during the project. The resulting project rating helps identify areas of weakness that need to be addressed before the problem becomes a reality on the construction site. To support improvements in key weakness areas of the project this tool includes a database of best practices relevant to the specific problems on the project. Supporting documents have been merged together for easier printing, individual items may be found in the library. This best practice was developed in 2006 at the request of the Construction Performance Committee.

Rework Committee

Definition of Field Rework:
Total direct cost of redoing work in the field regardless of initiating cause or source.

Field Rework Reduction Committee Purpose:

  1. To Identify Causes of Field Rework
  2. To Develop Methodology for Measuring Field Rework
    a) in an “industry-wide benchmarking process”
    b) through “leading indicator analysis”
  3. To Identify Best Practices to Eliminate the Causes of Field Rework

…with the Ultimate Goal of Eliminating Field Rework

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

The Construction Owners Association of Alberta recognizes that COAA’s office in Edmonton is located within Treaty 6 Territory and within the Métis homelands and Métis Nation of Alberta Region 4. We further acknowledge that what we call Alberta is the traditional and ancestral territory of many peoples, presently subject to Treaties 6, 7, and 8.

We acknowledge the many First Nations, Métis and Inuit who have lived in and cared for these lands for generations and we are grateful for the traditional Knowledge Keepers and Elders who are still with us today and those who have gone before us. We make this acknowledgement as an act of reconciliation and gratitude to those whose territory we reside on or are visiting.
