Abstract

The Indonesian construction sector is a vital economic driver but suffers from frequent setbacks, with approximately 38% of projects experiencing delays. Traditional scheduling methods, such as CPM and PERT, often lack the flexibility and collaborative potential required for dynamic modern projects. Consequently, this study evaluates the Last Planner System (LPS) integrated with 4D Building Information Modeling (BIM) to anticipate delays and implement the Lean Construction mechanism. Focusing on "Project X" in Semarang, the research utilized quantitative data, including S-Curves and weekly work plans alongside 4D simulations created with Microsoft Project and Autodesk Navisworks. Performance was measured using Percent Plan Complete (PPC) to track the consistency between planned and realized work. The results were significant: integrating LPS with 4D BIM achieved a 100% PPC and saved 15 working days compared to using LPS alone. This demonstrates that combining collaborative planning with advanced visualization effectively enhances productivity. Future research is suggested to expand this interoperability to include cost-benefit analysis (BIM 5D).
