Eduarda da Silva Scott Hood, Eduardo Luís Isatto, Carlos Torres Formoso
Abstract
The implementation process of any management system generally faces several obstacles related to organizational changes and the nature of construction work and its requirements (HAMDI, 2013). This document will present two of the existing planning methods. Firstly, the Last Planner System (LPS), which comes from a vast period of studies and consolidation in the field of civil construction, and then an emerging method developed in 2011 by a research team in partnership with Construction Industry Institute (CII) and the Construction Owners Association of Alberta (COAA), entitled Advanced Work Packaging (AWP), focused on megaprojects. Finally, the purpose of this article is to present the two methods, their application and promote a brief discussion about their particularities and complementarities.
