Lean Design and Construction

To achieve the aggressive target schedule, we implement the following lean initiatives:

• Modularization and plugand-play solutions
• Use off-the-shelf equipment
• Facility Simplification
• Off-site fabrication
• Standard construction design details

Building Information Modelling (BIM)

Lendlease uses BIM as the design platform to generate all design & fabrication documents from frond end engineering to shop drawing development at construction phase.

• Improving visualization
• Improving coordination
• Reducing design risk
• Increasing understanding
• Reducing shop drawing duration
• Reducing rework and wasted time
• Reducing wasted material
• Improving construction quality
• Improving collaborating between LL, GC and subcontractors
