Software creation has the characteristic that if you are doing the same thing over and over you are doing it wrong. Construction and manufacturing are much about doing the same thing the same way every time. This is why a lot of techniques do not translate well to/from software and other disciplines.

I would argue that 90% of all software share the same premise.
And considering nearly every construction process is behind time and over budget, the premise itself is flawed.
