Abstract Since Lean Construction has been introduced as a new management approach to improve productivity in the constructionindustry, much research is in progress to develop lean concepts and principles for better implementation and to get results of thesuccessful adaptation of lean ideas from manufacturing for application in the construction industry. Currently, Lean ConstructionInstitue developed Last Planner System to achieve better workflow and effective planning management. Domestic constructioncompanies are also getting interested in the Lean Construction. However, there are no detailed guidelines how to implement leansystem. Thus, this study will provide a guideline for deployment of last planner system, a prototype lean implementation controlchecklist, and all project participants roles based on the case studies in USA. This study should provide a framework to applylean construction to domestic construction sites.
