Deming’s Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle, also known as the Deming Cycle or Shewhart Cycle, is a management and continuous improvement methodology. It consists of four stages: Plan, Do, Check, and Act. In the context of the construction industry, each stage of the PDCA cycle plays a crucial role in ensuring that projects are planned, executed, monitored, and improved effectively.
2. Do:
The “Do” phase involves the actual implementation of the plans developed in the previous stage. In the construction industry, this phase includes the physical construction activities, procurement of materials, hiring and management of labor, and overall project execution. Key elements of the “Do” phase include:
Construction Execution: Carry out the construction activities according to the established plans and specifications.
Quality Control: Implement quality control measures to ensure that the construction meets specified standards and regulations.
Procurement: Procure and manage materials, equipment, and services required for the construction project.
Communication: Maintain effective communication channels among project stakeholders to ensure a smooth construction process.
The “Do” phase is where the planned activities are put into action, and the construction project progresses from theory to reality.
