AB  - This study delineates the integration of Virtual Reality (VR) within Lean Construction, emphasising its application across the philosophy, principles, methods, and tools of Lean Construction. By conducting a systematic literature review, this research considers the utilisation of VR to enhance construction processes, specifically focusing on its role in mitigating waste, maximising value, continuous improvement, and respect for people. The investigation reveals VR's capacity to bridge the theoretical and practical aspects of Lean Construction, offering a novel perspective on its implementation. The results demonstrate VR's potential in advancing Lean Construction practices through its philosophy, principles, methods, and tools. Also, the utilisation of VR, particularly in SCRUM, Set Based Design and Visual Management, underlines a transformative potential for enhancing construction project efficiency and value. The paper concludes by highlighting the contributions of VR to Lean Construction, proposing actionable insights for practitioners and suggesting avenues for future research. This approach provides a comprehensive review for integrating VR in construction projects, aligning with Lean Construction for enhanced project outcomes
