Problems in the Implementation of the Lean Concept in the Construction Industries
Abstract Many companies are implementing Lean management in order to be more competitive. The goal of management in the construction industry is the reasonable allocation of resources in order to complete the project in accordance with the approved budget, time allowance and the set quality level. Lean management tools can significantly contribute to increasing the efficiency of resource use at a construction site through their rational use. In the article, based on surveys, expanded with an expert interview, the results of using lean tools in the construction industry are presented, as well as their impact on improving the construction process from the management’s point of view when executing a construction project. According to the results of the survey, it is clear that lean management is still unknown and not widely used in the construction industry outside large construction companies. Based on observations of the implementation of construction processes, the areas of implementation possibilities were identified and barriers to Lean implementation in the construction sector were identified.
