VALUE MANAGEMENT OF CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS Second Edition Value Management is a philosophy, set of principles and structured management methodology for improving organisational decision-making and value-for-money. It is well-established in the international construction industry and has been endorsed as good practice in a range of UK government sponsored reports. The authors have addressed the practical opportunities and difficulties of Value Management by synthesising background, international developments, and benchmarking with their own extensive consultancy and action research experience in Value Management to provide a comprehensive package of theory and practice. Covering methods and practices, frameworks of value and the future of value management, this thoroughly updated second edition extends the integrated value philosophy, methodology and tool kit to describe the application of Value Management to service delivery, asset management and programmes, in addition to projects, products and processes. In particular, the new edition responds to: A range of recent UK industry and government publications; and most notably BS EN 16271:2012 - Value management: Functional expression of the need and functional performance specification; the imminent update of BS EN 12973:2000 Value Management; BS EN 1325 Value Management – Vocabulary, Terms and Definitions; the changes to "Value for Europe" governing the training and certification of Value Management in European Union countries; the UK Government’s Management of Value (MoV) initiative, and other leading reports, international guidance and relevant standards. Changes in Value Management practice, particularly in programmes and projects. Developments in the theory of value, principally value for money measures, whole life value option appraisal, and benefits realisation. Initiatives in asset management covering the management of physical infrastructure, for example the suite of three standards under the generic title of BS ISO 55000: 2014 Asset Management, and its predecessor BSI PAS55 2008 Asset Management: Specification for the Optimized Management of Physical Assets. It contains a dedicated chapter of exemplar case studies which demonstrate the new areas of theory and practice, and an extensive set of tools and techniques of use in Value Management practice. Public and private construction clients and construction professionals such as cost consultants, quantity surveyors, architects, asset managers, engineers, and project managers will all find Value Management of Construction Projects essential reading. It will also be of interest to researchers and students on construction related courses – particularly those at final year undergraduate and at Masters level.

The design and construction of buildings is a lengthy and expensive process, and those who commission buildings are continually looking for ways to improve the efficiency of the process. In this book, the second in the Building in Value series, a broad range of topics related to the processes of design and construction are explored by an international group of experts. The overall aim of the book is to look at ways that clients can improve the value for money outcomes of their decisions to construct buildings.

Value management incentive programmes and clauses are a powerful mechanism for allowing continuity of contractors' input throughout a project delivery. The fact that incentive programmes have been overlooked in the reports and publications portraying alliancing and partnering as the way forward, means that this effective tool has been largely lost to the UK construction industry. The book considers value incentive programmes in depth, highlighting their application and benefits to client and contractor. It provides an insight into contractor-led value engineering and its effective use in different procurement forms.
