Publisher's Synopsis
The implementation of value engineering results in ""more for less, "" and it is fast becoming the favored method of planners and engineers to design parts, equipment, and products in a way that will provide the lowest cost without sacrificing reliability. In Value Engineering: A Blueprint, James Brown uses his vast experience to fully explain every aspect of the subject from its history to application. It takes the novice or experienced engineer through every phase of the process, step by step, and even explains how to write a VE report. Value engineering is so critical that Armed Services Procurement Regulations specify that all contracts over a stated dollar value must include either a VE program or incentive clause.
