Abstract:
A set-up crew involves the concept of using reduced-sized specialty crews, working on a second shift or weekend-hours basis, to "set up," or prepare, critical tasks for the full crew on the following work day. A set-up crew can be used effectively prior to or after the working hours of the full production crew. The use of this type of speciality crew for preparatory tasks can maintain project continuity and eliminate unnecessary delays.
