Abstract
Building Information Modeling (BIM) and lean are two distinct concepts used in the construction industry which are independently applied to the construction process and provide profound impacts. Evidence shows potential gain if both BIM and lean are integrated. This research proposes an integrated model that applies both BIM and lean on a modular construction manufacturing (MCM) process and gains the benefits of both concepts. A computer tool for drafting the modular construction process called MCMPro was expanded to generate the building components' schedule. The Value Stream Map (VSM) of the factory is generated based on the components' schedule through a proposed Integrated Process Improvement (IPI) method using a set of mix lean principles to reduce waste over a broad range of factory activities. A simulation model using Simphony.NET 3.5 is developed to run the generated VSM and produces the results. The proposed methodology is validated by a case study, which is a modular building located in Edmonton, AB, and illustrates the effectiveness of the proposed methodology.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
