With the housing shortage in Sweden today, effective solutions to the problems that arise are required. One of the issues in almost every construction project is change orders which often causes additional work and could negative impacts on the project such as reduced productivity; it could cause rework which could affect the working environment and increase the project cost. This report will review an alternative method of managing change work called “TvåTågsPrincipen” (TTP). What characterizes the method is that you produce in two teams, a production team that strives for continuous production, and a second team that comes in afterward as the production has passed from a moment or building component to carry out all changes and additions. After several interviews with people within construction following conclusions were drawn: the method can bring both positive and negative effects to a project, and both are important to keep in mind. Examples of positive impacts could be accordingly: higher productivity, better working environment and lower costs. Incorrect use of the method could result in larger change orders, greater environmental impact and more material usage.
