Survey on Lean Construction and Digital Technology Integration Based on Literature Research

Abstract:

The lean construction （LC） and digital technology integration is the key and path to improve the economic benefit and production efficiency of the construction industry， and it is also a hot field of theoretical research and practical innovation in recent years. However， few scholars have made a systematic summary of the concept so far. Therefore， the relevant research articles in the academic journals published at home and abroad on the lean construction and the digital technology applied in the field of construction are reviewed using the methods of bibliometric analysis and key literature analysis. It is shown that， the digital technology （especially building information modeling （BIM） technology） has gradually become a key support for the application and promotion of lean construction. The in-depth integration of the two technologies can produce positive synergistic effects， further improving the efficiency and reducing the cost of project management.
