Value Analysis/Value Engineering

Reducing product cost has been approached from many different perspectives from six sigma, lean manufacturing and global manufacturing to the unfavorable practice of demanding price reductions from suppliers. All of these approaches are characterized as the initiatives of the previous century that do not pan out as the sustainable avenue for cost reduction. Value Analysis/Value Engineering has now become an important function in the product life cycle, but most organizations are often challenged by the limitation of resource bandwidth to undertake this imperative exercise.
