The application of simulation in lean production research: a critical review and future directions

Abstract: PurposeSimulation has attracted increasing attention in lean production research as a response to address the complexities of the production environment and difficulties of dealing with changes within a system. Considerable growth of using simulation to facilitate lean acceptance and implementation has been observed across different projects and sectors. However, a thorough review of the development and use of simulation in lean production research is limited.Design/methodology/approachThis study aims to addre… Show more

“…Besides, several review articles systematically explore the potential synergies between lean and emerging construction practices, e.g. simulation techniques (Shou et al, 2021), BIM (Terreno et al, 2019), sustainability (Carvajal-Arango et al, 2019 and modular construction (Innella et al, 2019). These reviews further demonstrate the diversity of lean techniques and tools and highlight the research need for integrating lean with emerging practices in construction.…”

“…Besides manufacturing, LM and simulation have been used in a wide area of sectors. These sectors include but are not limited to construction, financial management and human resource management (Shou et al , 2021). Furthermore, one sector where LM is rising in popularity in the health care sector (Hallam and Contreras, 2018).…”
