This review explores how lean and 5S systems enhance efficiency and sustainability in construction, indicating their potential to address industry challenges.
India's construction industry is a key driver of national development, yet it often grapples with issues such as project delays, budget overruns, poor resource utilization, and inadequate quality oversight. This research aims to explore essential construction management principles that can enhance overall project performance and operational efficiency. It emphasizes critical success elements like strategic planning, effective coordination, detailed scheduling, safety adherence, and consistent progress tracking. The study further investigates the role of modern approaches—such as lean construction and the 5S methodology—in reducing waste, improving productivity, and streamlining workflows. Additionally, it evaluates sustainable building practices for their potential to lower environmental impact and improve the use of resources. A multi-method research approach is adopted, including literature analysis, expert insights, questionnaires, data interpretation, and Indian project case studies. The expected outcome is a robust, practical framework offering actionable insights to boost construction efficiency during the planning, implementation, and evaluation phases, tailored to the specific hurdles of the Indian market while drawing from international best practices.
