Lean Construction presents an effective approach to eliminate waste, reduce costs and improve product quality, aiming to add value to the customer. Thus, the goal was to enhance the management and execution of value-adding activities in a steel cutting and bending company by applying Lean Construction (LC) principles and the New PAD. To this end, the nine steps of the New PAD were followed in the highly mechanized process of steel cutting and bending, which are: start-up meeting; subprocess identification plan; pre-improvement data collection; process diagnosis; opportunity identification; improvement plan; implementation of improvements; collection of post-improvement data and; verification of results. The application of the LC and the New PAD method proved to be efficient in improving production, with a 26% reduction in downtime during the activities of raw material supply flow, gauge change, and complete machine cleaning, contributions to the company, both in the mapping of production processes, as well as in the increase of productivity. As a contribution to the built environment demonstrated the applicability of the New PAD in various production environments of the construction industry.
