Key topics covered

The value study is where the primary Value Methodology is applied. The effort is composed of 6 phases: Information, Function Analysis, Creativity, Evaluation, Development, and Presentation.

1. Information Phase

2. Function Analysis Phase

a. Identify Functions and define both work and sell functions of the product, project, or process under the value study using active verbs and measurable nouns. This is often referred to as "Random Function Definition "

b. Classify Functions as basic or secondary

c. Develop Function Models

d. Assign cost and/or other measurement criteria to functions.

e. Identify Function Worth by assigning the previously established user/customer attitudes to the functions.

f. Cost Functions. Compare cost to worth of functions to establish the best opportunities for improvement.

g. Establish Value Index. Assess functions for performance/schedule considerations.

h. Select functions for Value Study

i. Redefine study scope

Course Details

Value engineering (VE) or value analysis (VA) is an important & powerful approach for improvement in the performance of the products, system or producers & reduction in costs without jeopardizing their function.

The basic objective of value engineering is to achieve equivalent or better performance at a lower cost while maintaining all functional 7 quality requirement. It does this largely by identifying & alimenting hidden, invisible & unnecessary costs. Value engineering helps in improving efficiency as well as effectiveness of products, system & procedures. The objectives of value engineering are as follows:

1) To enable people to pinpoint areas that needs attention & improvement.

2) To provide a methods of generating ideas & alternatives for possible solution to a problem.

3) To provide a means of devaluing alternatives including intangible factors.

4) To provide a vehicle for dialogue.

5) To document the rationale behind decisions.

6) To materially improves the value of goods & services.
