VALUE ENGINEERINGVALUE ENGINEERING
Value analysis & Value Value analysis & Value EngineeringEngineeringValue analysis & Value engineering can Value analysis & Value engineering can
be defined as an organised approach to be defined as an organised approach to provide the required function at the provide the required function at the lowest cost consistent with specific lowest cost consistent with specific performance, quality & reliabilityperformance, quality & reliability
Value analysis pertains to the existing Value analysis pertains to the existing product & services whereas value product & services whereas value engineering is concerned to the design of engineering is concerned to the design of new products new products
