The fields of design management and lean construction appear to be developing independently. This volume brings together authors from four continents to argue that lean thinking should be integral to design management in the fields of architecture, engineering and construction (AEC).

- lean thinking and flexible building solutions
- quality and flow of information in fourteen sub-projects of a major airport project
- Ghanaian consultants'' perspective on process waste
- target costing and its application to social housing projects in Brazil
