Estudo de caso da aplicação do Sistema Last Planner® para o contexto de Jataí-Go

Abstract

The Last Planner System (SLP) was developed with the aim of bringing more reliability to planning within the construction site. The main objective of this work is to improve the reliability and accuracy of planning through the implementation of SLP and evaluate its impacts on production with front-line managers. The research has a qualitative methodological approach, carried out through a case study in a residential building. At the beginning of the research, the recorded Percentage of Plan Completed (PPC) rates were on a high average, reaching 100% in week 11, however, during the work, difficulties arose in finding labor and the need to carry out a structural reinforcement of the pillars that was outside the plans. Despite the external conditions that were beyond the control of the construction management, the PPC indexes showed an increasing trend after reaching a minimum of 39%, which suggests that even in unfavorable conditions, the implementation of the SLP could help in returning to the original schedule, the which increase the chances of the work being completed on time. In addition, those in charge recognize the importance of implementing medium and short-term planning layers to help combat variability and uncertainty on the construction site, directly influencing production in a positive way.
