Value Engineering
A systematic, organised approach to providing the necessary functions in a project at the lowest cost.
VE · Overview
A systematic, organised approach to providing the necessary functions in a project at the lowest cost.
Value engineering promotes the substitution of materials and methods with less expensive alternatives, without sacrificing functionality.
It is one of our core areas of expertise, and every study follows five key steps, from information gathering to the final presentation of recommendations.
Our method
The five phases
- InformationGather the design, costs, functions and constraints.
- SpeculationGenerate creative alternatives for materials and methods.
- EvaluationAnalyse each option against cost, function and risk.
- DevelopmentBuild the strongest options into value management proposals.
- PresentationReport and present the recommendations for decision.
