Abstract

This research paper presents a comprehensive review of existing literature on the impact of sustainable lean practice on project timelines and performance within the UK construction sector. This review, drawing from a variety of
academic sources, attempts to decipher broader dimensions surrounding the implementation of sustainable lean
practices in construction projects. The implementation of lean practices in the construction industry has gained
significant attention in recent years due to its potential to improve project timelines and performance. This paper
examines and evaluates the impact of lean practices on construction project management, focusing on how these
practices influence timelines and overall project performance. Additionally, case studies and empirical evidence are reviewed on previous research articles to assess the efficiency of lean methodologies in different construction settings. The findings suggest that lean principles and strategies such as waste reduction, continuous improvement, and value stream mapping can lead to streamlined processes, reduced lead times, and enhanced project performance.
