Literature review on successful JIT implementation in developing countries : obstacles and critical success factors

Intelligent construction: unlocking opportunities for the digital transformation of China's construction industry

“…Table 3 presents the driving factors in the production and logistics stage. At the project management level, the pull production and logistics process is realized according to the actual needs of the construction site through real-time data collection by the IoT; the CPCS automatically issues scheduling instructions to ensure that materials and components are supplied to the construction site at the required time and in the required quantity, thus realizing the JIT production mode (Ezzahra et al. , 2018).…”

At the enterprise operation level, the production logistics data are integrated with the enterprise financial management data, and the financial process is automatically triggered through business events to perform automatic collection and accounting of project costs (You and Wu, 2019).…”

“…Therefore, how to achieve interoperability between these information islands is an urgent issue to be addressed in the field of digital transformation.End-to-end integration across the industrial value chain: Many stakeholders require collaborative work in the whole value chain of the construction industry, but the current information system architecture cannot support the integration of business processes across enterprise boundaries (Tiwari, 2020). For example, a number of companies tried to adopt the lean principle to realize just-in-time (JIT) production through pull logistics (Ezzahra et al. , 2018), aiming to ensure the consistency between material supply and construction progress.…”

For example, a number of companies tried to adopt the lean principle to realize just-in-time (JIT) production through pull logistics (Ezzahra et al, 2018), aiming to ensure the consistency between material supply and construction progress. However, this approach strongly relies on the real-time information collection and sharing of the supply chain.…”
