Résumé : During project definition, all the decisions related to the planning, programming, and schematic design stages, have a significant impact on future work environments. In these stages, client needs are identified, and the design solution is developed accordingly. However, the way project definition is traditionally managed has proved to be inadequate in complex projects such as hospitals. Poorly defined project may lead in these cases to injuries and difficulties to perform tasks. Participative approaches such as Lean-led design—in which stakeholders such as the clinicians and the patient are involved during the whole process of project definition—are proposed to address this problem. However, little is said in the literature, regarding the value of this approach to deliver projects that are better aligned with hospital client needs. This paper provides, firstly, based on a scoping review, a better comprehension concerning the implementation of Lean-led Design that is used to generate a synthesis of the literature around the subject. Secondly, it presents the preliminary results of the implementation of Lean-led Design approach during the project definition of a mega hospital in Canada. This approach was adopted in order to ensure the harmonization of needs and requirements stemming form the fusion of two hospitals in this complex. The main contributions of this research are to clarify the Lean-led Design concept and to identify its impact on the project definition process.
