NTU Workshop Explores Lean Construction’s Role in Tackling Global Challenges

Nottingham Trent University is bringing together leading minds in construction to explore how Lean thinking can help the industry respond to global pressures—from climate change to digital disruption.

On 15 July, NTU will host a one-day workshop featuring speakers from National Highways, Balfour Beatty, Arcadis, and international academics from Brazil. Topics include digital twins, AI in value stream mapping, and productivity on major infrastructure projects.

Dr. Ehsan Asnaashari, Senior Lecturer at NTU, says the event reflects a growing need for smarter, more collaborative approaches: “Lean Construction isn’t just about efficiency—it’s about resilience, value, and innovation.”

The event will close with a panel on the future of Lean research and its potential to reshape the built environment.
