Integrating Lean Design and Lean Construction:Processes and methods
Inspired by the industrial manufacturing debate of the late 1080's and the earliy 199s lean construction emerged from attempts of transferring and applying a Japanese (lean) production pilosophy to the construction industry. Application of the lean philosophy - which prescribes the enchancement of calue and elimination of waste as percieved by the end customer - has diffused slower and more uneven into construction compared to manufacturing, where it became a leading production and management trend of the late 1990s and the first half of the 2000s. However, lean construction has become a well established theme on the construction agenda in some countries (e.g. in Denmark and the UK). Hitherto lean construction has, in debate and practice, primarily focussed on production aspects. Gradually, however, design issues have started to recieve more attention and lean application to construction design is commonly referred to as lean design . Another important theme of recent years' debate on developing the construction industry and its project delivery practices is integration of project processes which has often been identified as a key issue regarding construction performance improvement. Issues of integration of construction design and production activities from a lean perspective are beginning to be addressed by the construction industry but have not yet been throughly and systematically investigated. Motivated by this situation this thesis aims to address the following two research questions: Research question 1: Is the lean philisophy appropriate as a means for pursuing integration of construction design and production processes? Research question 2: Which processes and/or methods and/or issues are crucial or critical for integrating construction design and production from a perspective of the lean philosophy? A review of literature on the lean philosophy and its application to manufacturing industries and construvction reveals that the lean philosophy is highly interpretive and that there is no shared definition ...
