What is Value
The minimum
money which has
to be expended in
purchasing or
manufacturing a
product to create
the appropriate
use of esteem
factors.

Cost Value.
Exchange Value.
Advantages of Value Analysis
It leads to improvements in product design so that, most
appropriate products are produced .
High quality (value) is maintained.
All-round efficiency is achieved by eliminating waste of
various types.
Cost savings provide a measure for judging managerial
effectiveness.
New ideas are generated and incorporated.
Teams spirit and morale are improved.
Areas requiring attention and improvement are pin
Procedure of Value Analysis
There is no standard approach or procedure
Ascertaining the needs and wants of customers.
Specifying
the
function
of
products
and
components.
Determining the appropriate cost of desired
performance.
Identifying better alternatives in terms of works
procedures.
Implementation of Value Analysis
Identifying the function:Primary.
Secondary.
Evaluation of the function by
comparison : Basic question
does the function accomplish reliability at the best
cost
Develop Alternatives.

WHAT
IS
VALUE
ENGINEERING
Value Engineering
Value engineering is a total of
management which approaches the
question of saving cost from the point of
view of value.
Requires co-operation of all functional
departments.
In large organisations, there are value
engineering teams having full time jobs.
Value Engineering
Value and cost
Value = Function
Cost
Value: What the product is worth to the customer.
Function: Properties and qualities of product.
Cost: Money value of materials used, Labour &
indirect costs.
Value Engineering
Suggestion schemes
Suggestion scheme facilitates the work
of value engineering team.
The scheme helps in the changes of
value engineering and makes it
implementation easier.
Value Engineering
Requirement of a product
Use.
Esteem.
It is essential to be considered how much to be
added in order to sell the part.
The reasonable price of a product can be obtained
by comparing with a comparative product.

Material
What is the
material
specification?
What quantity
of material
should be
used?
1) Is there any possibility of
elimination?
2) What alternative methods are
available?
1) Can alternative material be used?
2) Can the specification be
amended?
1) Is the size or weight of material
excessive?
2) Can the quality be reduced?
3) Will a cheaper material serve the
same purpose?
4) Is the cutting done economically
without waste?

Waste Control
Reasons for wastages in industry
Obsolescence
Surplus
Scrap
Role of Management in waste control
Proper inventory control
Materials management
Effective Co-ordination among departments
Input-Output Analysis
Systematic study of production
structure.
Predict total production of each year.
Production structure of all the industries
are to be grouped together.
Output material of 1 sector becomes
input raw-materials for the other.
