Last Planner System
The Last Planner System (LPS) is a project management approach used primarily in construction to improve planning and execution. It focuses on collaboration among team members to ensure that tasks are planned realistically. Each worker—especially those doing the actual work—contributes to the planning process, which helps identify potential challenges early on. Tasks are broken down into smaller, manageable steps, and progress is monitored regularly. By emphasizing communication and accountability, LPS aims to enhance efficiency, reduce delays, and deliver projects on time and within budget.
