Abstract
The Pakistani construction industry has gained a reputation as being both highly competitive and dynamic in recent years. The construction sector has been seeking to apply cutting-edge business strategies to survive in the increasingly competitive market. Organizations must try to offer clients high-quality, inexpensive products that do so in the shortest length of time. This is where creative concepts like Just-In-Time, which emphasize cost reduction by reducing non-value-added processes, come into action. This study evaluates the JIT method compared to the traditional approach to material management, identifies the advantages and disadvantages of the JIT method through a questionnaire survey, and assesses the significance of the JIT method in the construction of multistory buildings.
