The starting point of Lean Thinking is “value”. The manufacturer creates the value, but the value must be set by the customer. Value-adding activities in construction work can be broadly defined as transforming materials and knowledge into something the customer is ready to purchase. Non-value-added activities are those that the customer does not buy. Another group is activities that do not add value but that we have to do. Checks made due to legal requirements are an example of this.
For a definition of value to be meaningful, it must be expressed in terms of a particular product or service that meets the customer's needs at a particular time and at a particular price.
Value Stream
Flow from raw materials to the finished project. The value stream between value-adding activities is mapped to reveal waste. Value streams exist both on site and outside the company's boundaries. It includes value streams starting from all raw materials used in the project, whether they arrive on site as raw materials or as finished products.
Activities that do not create value, i.e. waste, consume most of the time and resources. Elimination of these wastes provides significant improvements in terms of time and cost.
After defining value and eliminating waste in the value stream, ensuring that the remaining value-creating phases are carried out in a continuous flow, one after the other, has significant savings potential.
Continuous Flow
In industry, product flows through value-added workstations or companies. In construction projects, materials flow within or between companies until they arrive at the construction site.
The peculiarity of the construction emerges after the materials arrive at the construction site. Now, instead of the project workforce flowing in front of it, the workforce flows over the project. In this case, the construction work schedule starts to 'flow'.
Pull
All parts and information are created and procured when needed to deliver the product or service exactly when the customer wants it.
Mass production to the customer'push' (push) Contrary to the practices in the industry, this principle has always been the target of construction works. The biggest enemy of towing in construction works is the high risk of contingency.
Perfection
This represents the ideal situation that will never be reached in practice for both industry and civil works ideal.
Desire for perfection requires everyone's common activity to detect waste as a common activity ve its elimination 136bad5cf58d_cc781905_cf3b3 5cde-3194-bb3b-136bad5cf58d_
