Abstrakt: This paper is a case study in order to evaluate the result of implementing the relatively new productivity management approach “lean production” in local construction industry of Malaysia in order to achieve better project outcome. Delay in project delivery is a major issue of concern for managers of construction projects. Traditionally the management tried to put effort to decrease construction task time by increasing resources to reduce duration of process activities. However the objective of lean concept is to avoid project delay by looking to the whole construction tasks rather than what is called activity based thinking. This research analyzes a case study of concreting task by initially identifying activities that contribute to the waste of time and then determining the amount of those activities.
