Selection and Use of VA/VE (Value Analysis/Value Engineering) Professionals.

摘要

VA/VE Professionals were selected and used by a federally-funded research facility as consultants to perform VE studies of facilities designs. The experiences of the first year, from preparing the request for quotation, interviewing and evaluating candidate firms to selecting projects to be studied, performing the studies and implementing the proposed cost savings are described as lessons learned, to guide new or expanding VA/VE programs.
