Abstract
LPDS – Lean Production Delivery Systems is a producing concept which instructs enterprise to implement project in order to decrease the wastes and increase the profit as much as possible. Traditionally, the management methods which support in the Project Management Book of Knowledge are generally used in construction. As a civil engineering student, this essay will focus on LPDS’s application to construction industry and the comparison between methods which support in the PMBOK and LPDS. Furthermore, it introduces a effective and efficient approach into project research as lean construction. 1
