How to Scale Target Value Delivery for Any Project: Part 1


Listen Later

“Collaboration isn't just for mega-projects.” 💬 In this powerful episode of The EBFC Show, Jason Brenner (@ Join) joins Felipe to break down how high-performing teams can achieve target value delivery (TVD) on projects of all sizes — not just the billion-dollar ones. 🏗️

 

With nearly 30 years of construction leadership experience (Genentech, DPR, Excel), Jason shares how he scaled from chemist to strategy exec — and what makes truly collaborative delivery not only possible, but sustainable.

 

💥 Topics include:

  • Why scaling down TVD actually unlocks innovation 💡
  • How Jason’s team delivered a 1% budget variance on a major pharma facility 🧪
  • The power of hands-on facilitation training and learning by doing 🙌
  • Why teams fail when they forget to onboard new people properly 🚨
  • The difference between parallel play and integrated collaboration 🎭
  •  

    Plus, Jason and Felipe get real about:

    • The illusion of "too late in design"
    • Investing in precon as an insurance policy
    • Why trust is the true project multiplier
    •  

      👀 Whether you're an owner, contractor, or design pro — this convo will challenge how you think about teamwork, culture, and delivering real value in construction. 👉 Don’t miss this one. Like Jason says, “You can’t shortcut your way to collaboration.” Ready to scale smarter?
