Lean Based Sustainability Project’s Challenges Based on Different Construction Projects: A Review
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Integrating lean construction concepts with sustainability’s practice can be considered as a game-changing strategy which lead to increase construction productivity and decrease environmental affects rate. Lean construction originally focuses on optimizing construction process and eliminating wastes which naturally is in line with sustainability’s emphasis on recovery resources, reduce CO2 footprints and whole environmental responsibilities. This study tries to present a comprehensive challenges by the integration of lean and sustainability through intensive literature reviews. The important opportunities can gain from the synergy is reducing the project cost, minimizing the project completion time, reduce environmental harm and involving technologies which promote creativity. Through integrating the two approaches many challenges will be arise. Financial issues, decentralized supply chain, lack of uniform metrics and standards to asses the integrations efficiency, special expertise training, etc. The challenges categorized into five main groups considering that applied in developing and developed country. Involving stakeholders and continues improvement (kaizen) are the most significant factors to enable the success of this integration.
