Abstract

This study aims to present the application of Lean philosophy practices in the development of linear urban infrastructure projects using Building Information Modeling (BIM), aiming to optimize the process. Two methodological approaches were adopted: a literature review and a case study to explore the integration of Lean into BIM. The results indicate that integrating the Lean philosophy into the information model development process provided benefits at all stages of the project's life cycle, significantly improving the workflow towards the client's desired value and structuring activities with a focus on the differentials of an efficient BIM process: automation, standardization, waste reduction, and professional appreciation. This study contributes to the field of digital engineering by demonstrating how the Lean philosophy can be effectively integrated into BIM projects, suggesting a model that can be replicated in other urban infrastructure initiatives, enhancing the benefits of BIM, and promoting a culture of continuous improvement.
