Presentation and Review

The Cost Optimisation through Value Engineering training course begins with the principles of value engineering, including the relationship between function, cost, worth and value, and the distinction between improving value and simply reducing expenditure. It then introduces the structured value engineering process and its principal phases. The agenda progresses to gathering and organising relevant information, examining cost distribution and defining the functions that must be performed, before considering how function analysis helps identify areas where value may be improved.

Attention then moves to the creative development of alternative ways to perform required functions, followed by the systematic evaluation and selection of the most suitable options. The course continues with developing preferred proposals through more detailed consideration of costs, feasibility and associated risks, before addressing their presentation and implementation. The concluding topics cover maintaining momentum after proposals have been accepted, monitoring results and embedding value-focused thinking into ongoing cost optimisation, bringing the successive stages of the value engineering process together.
