Building a home can be a complex project. Building thousands of homes in hundreds of communities throughout the United States can be overwhelming. K. Hovnanian Enterprises does it daily. Number 9 on Builder magazine’s Builder 100” – a list of the 100 largest homebuilders in the United States – K. Hovnanian practices thestrategies of even flow production, which has as its goal the establishment of a project management system that is reliable, consistent and predictable. The reduction of “empty-house days,”which are days during the construction process in which no activity occurs on a home being built, is an expected benefit of this system.
    Toward that goal, the Red Bank, N.J.-based homebuilder relies on the scheduling and project management capabilities of Primavera’s newest scheduling technology for the construction industry. The software lets the company provide a centralized scheduling database that project planners and procurement coordinators can access to keep the construction of thousands of homes on schedule and, therefore, on budget.
