Abstract

Construction industry is the second largest sector in India. Due to its wide socio economic status, it has been a major area of research as well. Construction industry is known for heavy wastes during production, construction planning, administration etc. Lean is often characterized by minimization of waste. Present paper aims to explore the various lean metrics which helps to reduce wastages in construction thereby improving work quality in the product development process. It further studies the interrelationship amongst them using ISM methodology.
