AWARENESS, USE AND BENEFITS OF LEAN TECHNOLOGIES ON CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS IN NIGERIA
The Nigerian construction industry is confronted with numerous challenges, including poor performance and waste generation during construction. Lean, to a greater extent, has been able to improve quality, minimize waste generation, and ensure value for money on delivered projects. Hence, this paper aims at identifying the extent and level of awareness of lean technology;311assessing the benefits of adopting lean technologies on construction projects in Imo state, Nigeria. A total of about 200 self-administered questionnaires were purposely distributed to practitioners within Imo state. Of the 200 questionnaires, 132 were completed and returned, while 6 were found unfit, and the rest (126) were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics 25.0. The result indicates that the level of awareness of lean construction technology use is still at a moderate level, while the benefits of lean technologies adoption include allowing for the maximum use of equipment and materials on construction sites. This paper recommends that workshops and seminars by professional bodies be organized from time to time to help in enlightening practitioners on the needs and benefits derivable from the adoption of lean construction technologies.
