Investigation of BIM and Lean are the main research areas of this thesis. Conducting a review on the literature related in both fields, and analyzing 24 different case-studies are the main research method of this research. This thesis aims to investigate the impact of both approaches (BIM & Lean) on construction projects. Also identifying the benefits of the use of both tools on the project stakeholders. Besides, providing a roadmap for successful implementation of BIM and Lean.
This thesis is structured into Three main sections, the first section is a literature review conducted on AEC Industry, Building Information Modeling (BIM), and Lean philosophy. The Second section is the analysis of case-studies and developing of road map for the implementation of BIM and Lean within the project. The last section of this study is the Conclusion and Recommendations.
This research shows a real correlation between the implementation of BIM and Lean in construction, and the success of the project, and that full awareness of the implementation of BIM in a Lean-environment should be diffused between the project stake holders. This study comes out with 17 different use of BIM and 11 different Lean approaches, which could be adopted in construction projects in order to enhance the efficiency of the project and lessen the waste areas. Moreover, this study proves that all of the project stakeholders get several benefits of using BIM and Lean.
