VALUE MANAGEMENT IN AUTOMATION TECHNOLOGY - SUCCESS WITH HOLISTIC APPROACH

摘要

The application of the methodology of VA/VE on existing products in automation technology resulted in economic success. Key factors in this project have been the holistic approach and the interdisciplinary project team: all participants are convinced that by the application of VA/VE they got a new perspective onto the product. In opposite to the fear at the beginning it was possible to clearly separate good and realizable ideas from economic uninteresting ones. And all participants have been motivated to work on the realization of the concepts and to get the cost savings.
