Shares in the building manufacturer jumped 26 cents yesterday to $6.07 following the news.
Mr Adamson plans to co-locate businesses and distribution centres as part of a wider program of significantly reducing costs.
Fletcher expects a 12 to 22 per cent lift in earnings despite providing an uncertain outlook for Australian home building levels.
