schedules. The integration framework between LSM of
offsite and onsite construction activities mimics the
repetitive nature of manufacturing processes and onsite
activities while considering uncertainties associated
with productivity rates. Automating the presented
Offsite method provides an easy to use planning and scheduling
tool for synchronizing offsite and onsite schedules
without using simulation. The overall integrated
