Solving design management problems using lean design management: the role of trust

Abstract: Purpose: Although prior studies have noted the importance of trust for project performance, research remains scant on describing the role of trust when using lean design management (LDM) in projects. This study explores the connection between LDM and interpersonal trust in solving construction projects' design management problems.Design: A qualitative study was conducted that included 29 trust-and LDM-themed semi-structured interviews in the United States (California), Brazil and Finland; 11 focus group discus… Show more

“…In the early phases of the project, gained trust and efforts to seek common ground and shared goal, is crucial. Social interaction is stronger in trustful project settings, thus facilitating collaboration with less resources (Uusitalo et al, 2019b). Applying LPS in design management promotes social interaction among an inter-organizational design team, thus leading to increased levels of trust.…”

“…Applying LPS in design management promotes social interaction among an inter-organizational design team, thus leading to increased levels of trust. Better trust leads to better communication and collaboration (e.g., Smyth, 2005;Wong et al, 2008;Cheung et al, 2013;Issa et al, 2017) as well as creates a positive spiral in projects social setting (Uusitalo et al, 2019b). Teamwork and rearranging design tasks lower the effort needed to transfer information, thus leading to eliminate waste in the design process (Kpamma and Adjei-Kumi, 2011).…”

“…Lean design management (LDM) has contributed to achieving remarkable results in construction projects, such as increasing collaboration among project parties, adding customer value, and reducing project costs (e.g., [1][2][3]) as well as solving design management problems [4]. LDM tools and processes each have their own strengths and optimal phases when they should be applied in a project [5].…”
