An Intensive 5-day Training Course
Advanced Value Engineering
Optimising Project Value through Structured and Cost-Effective Solutions
INTRODUCTION
Value Engineering (VE) is used in the project lifecycle to engage stakeholders to understand and capture the functionality requirements, apply a structured, independent methodology to improve functionality and reduce or optimize costs. The VE methodology is creative and innovative in identifying value-mismatched functions and replace them with best value solutions.
This Advanced Value Engineering training course focuses on both the fundamentals of value engineering methodology and the advanced techniques on how to give the Project Stakeholders high levels of confidence for Value Engineered project delivery in terms of quality, cost, and time.
TRAINING OBJECTIVES
This training course aims to enable participants to achieve the following objectives:
- Understand the basics of cost management and value engineering
- Confidently estimate project costs using recommended best practices
- Incorporate Value Engineering into a project at the right time
- Learn and apply the best techniques used in Value Engineering
- Learn how to evaluate and communicate VE results to stakeholders
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
This EuroMaTech training course is designed specifically for those professionals who are Project managers and program managers, cost estimators, design teams and implementation teams of systems, processes, and facilities, as well executives and project owners wishing to optimize the value of their projects and operations.
TRAINING METHODOLOGY
This Advanced Value Engineering training course will combine presentations with interactive practical exercises, supported by video materials, activities, and case studies. Delegates will be encouraged to participate actively in relating the principles of value engineering as well as the implementation of it on their projects and operations.
TRAINING SUMMARY
This Advanced Value Engineering training course covers methods on gathering and defining client requirements regarding Value Engineering objectives, estimating project costs using proven techniques for incorporating risk contingencies, analysing project functions and determine value miss-matched functions, preparing and evaluating a list of alternatives to improve value in terms of benefits, quality, and decreased cost, as well as developing the best selected alternatives into value proposals to be presented to the stakeholder and integrate them into the original plans before implementing them.
