Why focus on labour for increasing productivity?

In Construction domain, in spite of Heavy Mechanization, Around 95% of the activities within the Project Duration are labour intentsive.
As accuracy in estimating the Material Costs forms the prime factor in Cost Budgeting, similarly Labour Productivity forms the prime factor in calculating ETC (Estimate to Complete) Duration of every activity in the project.
Labour Productivity is affected mainly due to Wrong Logical sequencing and Poor Crew Mobilization Plan resulting in
1. Labour Resource available at spot, and is IDLE, since preceeding activity not completed.
2. Lack of Timely Delivery of Supporting Informations/ Instructions and Material Resources
