Abstract:

Question: How can you differentiate between an organization relatively immature in Lean Construction and one relatively more mature in Lean Construction (LC)

Research Method: Collection of qualitative data using mixed methods of interviews and focus group

Findings: A validated model for LC maturity is presented comprising of 11 key attributes and 60 behaviors, goals and practices that enable a distinction between levels of maturity to be made

Limitations: Given the small sample no claims of wider generalizability of the model can be made without further research

Implications: The model provides a means of delineating organizations in terms of the level of LC maturity

Value for authors: The model can be used by practitioners to guide their decision-making and support their strategic choices when implementing LC
