Lean Construction offers a possible answer for system level potencyimprovement.Lean implementation is a challenge to deal with untrained staff, improper site management and safety aspects in construction. Construction sites must allow adopting the Lean principles and using numerous different Lean tools by imparting training to the staff. The paper presents several of the quality advantages of Lean implementation. However, the extent of gains are seen to be influenced by several soft aspects, like the culture and position of an organization, designing and engineering experience, commitment and support from prime management and site management. Key Words: Lean principles, Indian Construction, Toyota way, prospective solution 1. INTRODUCTION The construction industry has very low productivity as compare to other industries since many years evenaftertheuseofnew technologies and use in construction. Lean concept is very popular in manufacturing industries to improve productivity by smooth work flow and minimize the waste. A Lean construction is a “way to design production systems to minimize waste of materials, time, and effort in order to generate the maximum possible amount of value," here waste is different from pure construction waste. Designing a production system to achieve the stated ends is only possible through the collaboration of all project participants (Owner, Architect/Engineer, contractors, Facility Managers, End-user) at every stagesoftheproject.Lean Construction is believed to be particularly useful on complex, uncertain and quick projects. There are substantial researches that have been focused on Lean Construction theory. Some oftheleanprinciplesthat are related to the construction industry are such improvements as the construction planning process, eliminating waste, construction supply chain, and downstream performance. Lean construction draws upon the principles of project-level management and upon the principles that govern production- level management. Primarily, lean construction aims to reduce the waste caused by unpredictable workflow. Here Waste is defined in following categories: defects, delays due to waiting for upstream activities to finish before another job can begin, maintaining excess inventory, and unnecessary transport of materials and unnecessary movement of people. Over allocated equipment and material on site, accident on site etc. Work is structured throughout the process to maximize value and to reduce waste at the project delivery level. Efforts to manage and improve performance are aimed at improving total project performance,because this is more important than reducing the cost or increasing the speed of any particular activity. The Toyota Way Model is employed to solve some of the time overshot limitation. It is beneficial to analyze the attributes of Toyota Way Model in terms of their importance to optimize delaying situation. 1.1 Literature Review In Northern India, real estate construction projects could not be saved from the problem of time overrun, which signifies delays in construction projects (Asim, Shumank and Aqeel, 2017). Delays occur in most development ventures, regardless of whether straightforward or complex. Kazaz et al. (2012) concentrated the reasons for constructiondelaysandtheirimpactson the time idea. A potential answer for the issue of deciding the impacts of basic achievementcalculateonconstructionprojectsis expanded pre-project arranging (Yang et al. 2012; Doloi, H. et al., 2012). The advantages of pre-project arranging incorporate expanded benefit, lessened hazard, and superior quality (Barker et al. 2004; González et al. 2008;Hanna andSkiffington2010; Asim M., Deep S., and Dr. Aqeel S. A. 2017). A review made by IHS Global (2009) maintains that the Indian development industry isprofoundly divided. This ispartly attributed to the fact that for most ventures, there are nolonglastingconnections between the temporary workers and customers. For example, government workplaces, for instance, the National Highway

Since the portion needs economies of scale, littler players may have better cost structures in view of lower overhead costs. 1.2 Causes of Delay Researchers have studied the many causes of delay in the construction industry. Lo et al. (2006) summarized some of the studies that took place from 1971 to 2000 (Table1). Table1.

METHODOLOGY The methodology espoused is to analyze the lean performance of construction sites in transportation sector by awarding the lean score. The expected benefits which are predicted post application of lean principles are noted down. The application of Toyota Way attributes in construction sites will lead to their transformation into lean construction organization. 2.1 Need for Research North Indian construction industries within realm of Lucknow (India) are shaped by four precarious performance facets, namely, quality, productivity, profitability and project management. In order to accomplish serviceably all the performance facets, ethics of Toyota way model can favorable. In actual enactment, it seems that no single real estate construction firm has fully demonstrated itsability, capacity, or readiness to implement all the principles of ToyotaWaymodelwhichmanifestsgaps between two. A requisite is to shoot Toyota management postulates to real estate construction firms for exertions need to be utilized as anti-delay remedy to ameliorate the approach within each different principle: the contribution of employees and workers (manpower), the contribution of materials and machines and the contribution of workplace design. 2.2 Introduction to the Toyota way principles In recent years, the state-owned and private companies have gradually initiated to undertake the lean approachsoastolessen probability of cost and time overrun of construction projects. So far, most companies have only focused on the application of lean tools and very few have fully started the whole lean enterprise transformation. Lucknow firms held three different attitudes towards lean principles. Firstly, many companies claimed that they are lean companies because they have already implemented 5-S activities, or etc., but they have failed to appreciate the interrelationships between many other tools. Secondly, many companies believed that occurrence of delays are due to an act of God and lean principles will not stop delay occurrence. Lastly, some companies thought that they completed their lean transformation years ago. Learning from Toyota and itsunderlying principles is a novel undertaking in the real estate constructionindustry.Establishing an implementation framework of the Toyota Way principles for the Indian real estate construction firms is important as this management philosophy has the potential to help solve the problems which plaque the Real estate construction industries. Following are the main pinpoints.

But itmustnotthedrivingpurpose of contractor or owner and must adopt strategy of “constancy of purpose” for growth in sales of deliverables and hence profit (sense of purpose).To avoid delays during construction work/designing phase construction organization must not dismissits employees because of a temporary downturn and it must sustain a long-term relationship with the suppliers (long term perspectives).Construction industry must have unique spirit of “let’s do it ourselves” and self reliance. Self reliance helps in developing core-competitiveness. At firm, the champion to self-reliance isresponsibility for itsownsuccessesandfailures(self reliance and responsibility). The management endeavors to ensure that all tram members and departments realize their dual roles, namely that they are not only the customers of the previous operation but also the suppliers to the next operation downstream. In order to avoid delays due to lack of communication, inadequate manualoperation,loadingandunloadingparts from equipments construction resources like equipments, labors, machines must be arranged around the edge of a u-shape, allowing workers to walk the shortest distance from process to process and performing other manual operations .It willassist communication and allows the workers access to a number of machines and to be able tooperateseveralmachines.Theproject is not only delayed but the morale of workers plummet because of non-payment orirregularpaymentofwages.Subcontractors and suppliers of materials and components and their employees are likewise affected. The overburden of work onlabors,staff and on equipment’s reduce their efficiency and further rate of performing work slows down due to sickness. In this case situation of staff getting sick is common and so it will act as barrier to construction process. Standardized tasks are the foundation for keeping project work as per defined schedule and imply that all work should be highly specified in terms of timing, content, sequence and outcome. Creating standardized work requires identifying the repeatable elementsofaprocess, assessing the best way to perform those elements, developing a reliable method to ensure the performance of those elements and then performing the reliable method according to a required time. Visual management in construction is needed due to a number of factors such as physical environment involved, construction technology and contractual relations that result in difficulties visualizing the flow of work in progress on-site. Basically, visual management practices can be classified into different layers of visual workplace framework namely visual order, visual standards, visual measures and controlsandvisual guarantees. Real estate sector organization, which is still very labour intensive, aims to be on the cutting edge of technology. Thoroughly test new technology, technology must support people and company values and technology must improve people. Building professionals have attempted various new technologies, in the hopeofimprovingperformance,inanindustrywhichis known for its slow rate of adopting new technology. Table2.

In this stage, the site was expected to have implemented robust and integrated lean tools that visibly drove project planning on site. Further, at this point lean approach was expected to be an accepted mechanism, visible in all project meetings and reviews. • Level 4 represents ‘lean as culture’ status. In this stage, all personnel at site purposively think about lean as they carry out their tasks. Table 3: Lean Performance of construction sites S.

This framework can also be used by the top management of the firm, especially as this is essential for effecting organizational culture changes, mindset changes, etc. All such changes require the commitment of top management who need to take the initiative to become champions for facilitating implementation. Overall, this frame- work can be used as a practical guideline covering a numberof areas, including organizational philosophy, process, people and partners, and problem-solving. References 1.
