Lean Construction and Six Sigma Operations in Construction and Real Estate
Construction project’s growing complexity has limited the efficiency of project management practices in achieving the major goals; quality, time and cost. Concerns arise about the necessity of adopting new techniques within project management as a solution. Lean principles achievements in the manufacturing industry management have paved the way for the opportunity of integrating these principles within construction project management to overcome project complexity challenges. Studying the major challenges occur during project development and refer them to project management fields is the foundation of this study, referring different project challenges to major project management fields will make it possible to analyze the management processes, therefore, define areas of improvements. On the other hand, defining the major aspects of lean construction/Six Sigma along with supportive techniques. This study aims to define and explain how Integrating lean/Six Sigma principles and techniques in project management processes can help in overcoming challenges. This study will rely on researchers’ findings related to project management challenges and the author’s findings for challenges from two case studies. The findings will be analyzed and reflected to create the theoretical approach of integrating lean construction/Six Sigma within project management to overcome challenges. Key words: Project Management, Project Management Challenges, Lean Construction, Six Sigma, Lean Project Management.
