Enquiry pull research: an ethnomethodological approach to lean construction research or a lean approach to ethnomethodological research? (2008)
Presentation / Conference
Rooke, J., Seymour, D., Koskela, L., Bertelsen, S., Owen, B., & Cleary, M. (2008, July). Enquiry pull research: an ethnomethodological approach to lean construction research or a lean approach to ethnomethodological research?. Presented at IGLC16: Lean Construction: Making a Difference, Macdonald Manchester Hotel - Piccadilly Suite, Manchester, UK

This paper assembles some principals from three strands of thought: lean theory; ethnomethodology; and Wittgensteinian philosophy. These are considered with a view to their impact on research design and used here as a basis for an initial exploration...

Procurers, providers and users (PPU) : towards a meta-role model for conceptualising product-service in the built environment (2008)
Presentation / Conference
Siriwardena, M., Rooke, J., Koskela, L., Kagioglou, M., Mcdermott, P., Sexton, M., & Aouad, G. (2008, January). Procurers, providers and users (PPU) : towards a meta-role model for conceptualising product-service in the built environment. Presented at Building Resilience BEAR 2008, Kandalama, Sri Lanka

The product-service paradigm requires a shift in focus for many engineering disciplines, forcing them to change from providing products to providing products and associated services. Such a shift is likely to present several challenges to the built...
