Embedded within Lean Six Sigma is the fundamental principleof continuous improvement. Considering the multifaceted nature of construction projects,characterized by their complexity and involvement of various variables and stakeholders,instilling a culture of continuous improvement is paramount.

to rapidly changing technological and market landscapes. TheBusiness Model Canvas has helped stimulate and popularize new understandings regarding howto use a canvas. For example, some advocated that the process of venture creation should followa version of the scientific method – hypotheses about a market are proposed and then it is up tothe entrepreneur to verify or refute those hypotheses with real data (Neck and Greene, 2011;Blank, 2013). Progress toward a value proposition is therefore an iterative process. A secondexample is the merger of the canvas concept with lean principles, such as Six Sigma. The idea ofLean Launchpad is one where the entrepreneur intentionally minimizes resource usage, whileattempting to learn quickly and
