How BIM-lean integration enhances the information management process in the construction design (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Mollasalehi, S., Arachchi Rathnayake Mudiyanselage, A., Abou Moemen, A., Underwood, J., Fleming, A., Kulatunga, U., & Coates, S. (2017, July). How BIM-lean integration enhances the information management process in the construction design. Presented at 25th Annual Conference of the International Group for Lean Construction, Heraklion, Greece

The construction industry faces significant challenges due to insufficient processes. Design phase is a key process of construction project lifecycle in which many problems and challenges occur. Most of the issues within the design process are mainly... Read More about How BIM-lean integration enhances the information management process in the construction design.

A change management toolkit for construction projects (2006)
Journal Article
Sun, M., Fleming, A., Senaratne, S., Motawa, I., & Yeoh, M. (2006). A change management toolkit for construction projects. Architectural Engineering and Design Management, 2(4), 261-271. https://doi.org/10.1080/17452007.2006.9684621

Changes in construction projects often cause cost and time overruns. Because of the nature of design and construction of buildings, construction professionals often have to make decisions based on assumptions and previous experience. Changes at a lat...
