2. Value Engineering
VALUE - Reliable performance at Least cost
FUNCTION - Performance
COST - Expenditure of a resource(time, money,
people, energy and material)

3. Make or Buy Decision
S.Balamurugan AP/Mech AAA College of Engg. & Tech.
• Any product can be made with in organization or bought from a sub contractor.
• Each decision involves its own cost. Select the best alternative which results in lower
cost.
• Make or buy decision should be reviewed periodically (1-3 years). Not static.
4. Criteria for Make or Buy
Making Decision
• Product can be made
cheaper by the industry
than by outside suppliers
• Unable to meet the
demand. Only few
company's manufacture the
product
• Important part & Requires
close quality control
• Company have Similar part
manufacturing experience
Buying Decision
• Requires High investments on
facility
• The company does not have
facility to make it & there are
more profitable opportunities
for investing company’s capital
• Existing facilities utilized
effectively.
• Skilled personnel not available.
• Patent or other legal barriers
• Demand is seasonal

6. Value Analysis
• It is an organized approach to identify unnecessary costs associated with any
product (component, system or service) by analyzing the function and
eliminating such costs without affecting the quality, functional reliability or
capacity of the product to give service.
Symptoms for the need VA
– Product’s show decline in sales
– Price are higher than those of its competitors
– Raw material cost has grown disproportionate to the volume of production
– New designs are being introduced
– Cost of manufacture is rising disproportionate to the volume of production
– Rate of Return on investment has a falling trend.
– Inability of the firm to meet its delivery commitments
Rate of Return – It is the gain or loss on an investment over a specified time period
S.Balamurugan AP/Mech AAA College of Engg. & Tech.
7. Value
• Based on person it differs
– Designer – Reliability
– Purchase person – Price
– Production person – Cost to manufacture
– Sales person – Customer willing to pay
Value Investigations, Economic Value
Cost Value - Cost required to produce the part or service (Material + Labour +
Overhead etc.)
Exchange Value – the price that a purchaser will offer for the product(Measure of
property, quality, features)
Use value (Fundamental)– Functional value (product performed its intended
functions (i) Buyer’s view- Price, Manufacturer’s view – cost involved to make, Without use
value, there is exchange or esteem value.
Esteem Value – Cost incurred by the manufacturer beyond the use value
S.Balamurugan AP/Mech AAA College of Engg. & Tech.
8. Performance
• It is the measure of functional features and
properties that make it suitable for a specific
purpose.
• Appropriate performance requires
– Functional requirements
– Safety requirements
– Reliability requirements
– Maintainability requirements
– Appearance requirements

𝐶𝑜𝑠𝑡
9. Function
• It is the purpose for which the
product is made.
• Primary functions – the basic
functions for which the product is
specially designed to achieve.
Essential function whose non-
performance would make the product
worthless.
• Secondary Functions – if not in built,
would not prevent the device from
performing its primary functions.
• Tertiary functions - Related to
esteem appearance
S.Balamurugan AP/Mech AAA College of Engg. & Tech.
10. Aims of Value Engineering
• Simplify the product
• Use Cheaper & Better materials
• Modify & Improve product design
• Use efficient process
• Reduce the product cost
• Save money or Increase the profits
• Increase the utility of the product by Economical means
The value content of each piece of a product is assessed using the
following questions
Dose its use contribute to value?
Is its cost proportionate to its usefulness?
Does it need all its features?

Storming
A quality idea comes from Quantity of ideas
Creative ideas emerge from unconventional thinking
Spontaneous evaluation of ideas curbs(control)
imaginative thinking and retards the flow of creative
ides
Hitch(Catch) -Hiking on the ideas often lead to better
ideas
Creativity is a regenerative process & the recording of
ideas as they emerge helps serve as a catalyst to
generate more ideas
When ideas cease to flow , short diversions enable the mind to
rebound with new ideas after recovery
