1. Introduction
Lean Project Management (LPM) can be demarcated as the procedure which is very
much useful to enact the five principles of lean such as perfection, pull, flow, value as well as
value streams. There are numerous advantages related to the enactment of the lean principals
such as enhanced project visibility, improved communication procedure, higher profit margin
and reduced multi-tasking (Oakland & Marosszeky, 2018). The value of the consumers must
be focused in the first place according to the concept of lean methodology. There are diverse
categories of tools lean tools which are used in construction projects such as Stream Mapping
and Focus PDCA.
The prime determination of this report is to build a new home for a client within AUD
$50000 from the perspective of a house builder. This project has to be completed within 12
months and LPM practices must be used to deliver this project on time.
The report shall have numerous sub-sections like the selection of the project
management procedures and identification of the significance of effective stakeholder
communication (Rivera & Kashiwagi, 2016). Each of the section will be very much useful to
how LPM can be useful in the construction projects.
2. Project management processes
There are numerous project management procedures which are increasingly used in the
complex construction projects such as PMBOK and PRINCE 2. Each step of a project can be
managed in a systemized modus using PMBOK whereas the quality of the final output is
better if a project is conducted using PRINCE 2. Based on the specifications of these two
processes it can be said that PRINCE 2 methodology is the most used methodology in the
complex construction projects.

The prime reason behind the selection of this methodology is that the entire complex
project can be divided into smaller fragments so that each fragment can be managed in an
organized manner and the project is completed within the allocated budget and time
(Siegelaub, 2017). The other reason behind the selection of this methodology is that it helps in
enhancing the communication between each of the stakeholders who will be involved in this
project. Based on this methodology, any stakeholders can participate in decision-making
activities.
2.1 Finalise the client’s requirements
The selection of the scope of this construction project will be entirely depended on the
needs and expectations of the consumer of this project who is trying to build a new home
within a limited budget and time (Murillo Gomez & Jiménez, 2018). This construction project
shall require the involvement of different categories of service providers and supplier of the raw
materials.
Some of the requirement of the client in this construction project is to create a latest
design on the entire construction site, successfully completing the entire project within 12 months
the and the budget which is allocated to the housing building company, managing each phase of
the project in a systemized approach and defining the objectives of the project each stakeholders
of this project so that there are no real quality issues in this project ( Mugeni, 2019). The needs
and expectations of the consumers can be understood in a better way if the principles of PRINCE
2 are considered prior to the planning phase of this construction project. Both the in-scope as well
as the out scope of this project can be finalized in the first place with the help of this methodology
as well.
2.2 Stakeholder communication
There are diverse categories of challenges related to construction projects such as dealing
with the uncertainties of the project and communication issues among the stakeholders of the
