Advances in Constructional Engineering

Lean thinking originates from the manufacturing industry, and its application in construction management of construction projects has gradually received more attention in recent years. This paper mainly studies how to optimize the construction management of construction projects based on lean thinking. By means of reducing waste, improving efficiency, shortening the construction period, and reducing costs, it promotes the lean management of the construction process. Combining with the characteristics of construction projects, this article explores the impact of lean thinking on resource utilization, time control, and quality assurance during the construction process, puts forward specific strategies and methods for implementing lean management, and analyzes the implementation effect of lean management with practical cases. This paper summarizes the application advantages and the challenges faced by lean thinking in the construction management of construction projects, and looks forward to the future research directions.
