GEMBA Tour: Experience Prefabrication at Full Speed with TJ Wies Contracting

Join us for a high energy GEMBA visit that puts you inside one of the region’s busiest and most innovative prefabrication shops. Our host, TJ Wies Contracting, will showcase how Lean principles like prefabrication and modularization enable rapid construction with zero compromise on quality. You will see how teams manage weather risks, tight tolerances, and high performance standards while keeping projects flowing faster and smarter.

During the tour you will watch real production in action as teams build modular assemblies for active projects, including BJC HealthCare St. Louis and HCA Projects Nation-Wide.

You will also get an inside look at several small but powerful modular builds including field offices, pump houses, scale houses, and electrical houses that are being produced in tight sequence between major project runs.

This is a rare chance to walk the floor and see how prefabrication and modular construction are reshaping project delivery across the construction industry. If you care about flow, standardization, waste reduction, and building smarter, this experience belongs on your calendar.

Space is limited, so register early and bring your curiosity. The St. Louis Lean community will not want to miss this!
