The just‐in‐time (JIT) approach to materials management appears to be superior to a just‐in‐
case (JIC) approach in terms of reducing cost and improving productivity under most …

The purpose of this research is to evaluate the impact of Building Information Modeling (BIM)
on Just-In-Time (JIT) material delivery, with a focus on how the use of BIM can help improve …

Precast construction is an industrialized way to build, meaning transfer of work from factory
to site. This increases the quality and productivity of construction and reduces the …

Effective management of the prefabrication construction supply chain management
(PCSCM) requires careful consideration of rational resource allocation and Just-in-Time …

Prefabrication and just-in-time (JIT) delivery are important components of a lean supply
system. Past research focuses on how much lead time is reduced and how much costs are …

Despite a great deal of research into precast production scheduling published in academic
journals worldwide, little attention has been given to environmental performance related to …

Material kitting has been proposed as an effective solution to organize just-in-time (JIT)
material deliveries around assembly tasks; however, its applicability and impact on …

Compared with the manufacturing sector, the construction industry suffers from relatively
lower productivity, although some attempts are being made to overcome low construction …

Industrial buyers of capital facilities have experienced and continue to experience pressure
to reduce facility design and construction lead time. This pressure arises both internally (due …

Precast concrete structures (PCs) are widely used in the construction industry to reduce
