Website references to lean practices, by group

Firms whose archived website was read (2008 to 2026 for the federal award recipients of the panel; 2024 to 2026 for the rest). Website measures capture public communication, not verified implementation.

Lean practices named on corporate websites, firms per practice

Any archived page of the firm, 2008 to 2026, all three groups. Named practices count on their own; general planning and improvement tools (grey labels) count only on a page that also carries a general lean reference or a named practice.

First observed public commitment to lean project delivery, by year

Federal award recipients of the panel with a dated commitment. A commitment is dated by the first observed year with a qualifying website reference confirmed by a second page. Years without archive coverage are unknown, not zero; Common Crawl coverage starts in 2013.

Institute membership among the ranked firms, by dominant market and by size

Share of the ENR Top 400 firms (2025 ranking) ever listed as an LCI member (2013 to 2026) and listed in 2026, with 95% Wilson intervals.

Institute directory: member types

LCI corporate directory, 2026, by organization type; the second bar counts the members whose directory entry describes lean practice.

Institute directory: growth by cohort

Organizations listed each year, by the year first listed (archived directories 2013 to 2026; 2018 has no archive).

Year a practice is first named, by firm (federal award recipients of the panel, 2008 to 2026)

First archived year in which each firm’s site names the practice. Archive coverage is thin before 2013 and uneven after; a first year is an upper bound on when the practice was first named.
