The case for value management to be included in every construction project design process / Aini Jaapar

Value management (VM) in construction is the term to describe the total process of enhancing value for the Client from a project through concept to operation. While lower cost can be achieved through the traditional cost saving exercises, neither quality nor value can be guaranteed. Professional...
