TAGLINE: Eliminate Waste, Build Quality, Empower Team. Every construction project is characterized by being complex. Over the years, the efficiency and performance of the construction industry in the Philippines have been declining. Plus, the reality is that construction has been one of the largest polluters ever-since it started. This study proposes a plan of action that addresses these situations by introducing the concept of lean construction principles and value management. The purpose of this study is to integrate the sustainability of the construction industry in the Philippines. Sustainability was measured through triple-bottom-line. The paper explores the idea by reviewing different literatures to support theories and statements. It expands to measure the performances of the construction related to firms/companies in the Philippines, through four major categories, namely philosophy, process, people/partner and plant. The results were collected, analyzed and validated through different statistical treatments. For the last part, the researchers came up with a program that consisted of 20-suggested strategies which would help on eliminating waste, building quality and empowering team.
The construction process and construction management are highly reliant on the interaction between the triple constraints of project management of quality: scope, time, and cost. The industry has incorporated certain principles and technology, such as lean-based construction principles and Building Information Modeling (BIM), to maximize the time, quality, and cost-efficiency of various construction projects. Analysis and assessment of the factors and functionalities are needed to show their synergic relationships and determine their significant impact on the construction project using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). To gather information, a survey was conducted on the different construction companies in the Philippines. The results generated a model interrelating the triple constraints of project management and how they are affected by incorporating BIM and lean construction principles. The models created established a significant relationship towards all the tripe constraints considering both individual and combined functionalities and factors. An interdisciplinary framework incorporating both BIM and lean principles is conformed to optimize construction stages based on the triple constraints of project management.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
