| Résumé : | This paper provides a literature review of over 70 published research articles regarding Lean Design from 2002 to 2018. The review focuses on two aspects. Firstly, it provides a comparison between different definitions and terminologies presented by authors, and secondly gives an analysis of how Lean Design methods/tools apply to the construction industry. Two main issues have been identified and explored in this review. Indeed, there is still a gap between theory and practice concerning the context of the construction industry which makes the implementation process effortful and not clear for the practitioners. One aspect of this gap is reflected by the lack of a standard definition of what Lean Design means. Another aspect is the lack of consensus on a clear terminology of Lean Design. Definitions and interpretations differed from an author to the other with little emphasis on value. Besides, there is a lack of coherence between the proposed Lean Design definitions and the methods/tools used in practice. Thus, the first contribution of this research is providing a better comprehension of current Lean Design literature in the construction sector. The second one consists of presenting the different Lean Design definitions perspectives, and the incoherencies between these perspectives and the methods/tools proposed. Moreover, the last contribution is providing a new Lean Design definition taking into account abovementioned. |
