TFV-model

The TFV-Model is an important model in the Lean Construction Theory. TFV stands for Transformation (operations), Flow (processes), and Value. The model represents the relationship between these three main components of the management of a construction project, and how they all contribute to its success. The emphasize is placed on creating value for the customer, eradicating non-value adding (waste) activities, and mainly controlling the processes (flow) in a project rather than the operations (transformations/activities) them self. It’s therefore in the theory suggested that a process manager should be assigned to any given construction project, and whom would have a vital role for its success.
