Value engineering support services
Priced alternates for the decisions clients actually ask about, costed side by side inside the same workbook.
Value engineering
Value engineering conversations stall when nobody has numbers attached to the options. Alternates are measured and priced against the base scheme so the trade-off is visible: what the change saves, what it costs elsewhere, and what it does to the programme.
Options live in the same workbook as the base estimate, so switching between them is a selection rather than a rebuild, and the base number is never lost while the options are explored.

Who it is for
Contractors, developers and design teams working a scheme back into budget.
Value engineering
- Side-by-side pricing of base scheme and alternates
- Cost impact of specification and system substitutions
- Phasing and sequencing options priced
- Knock-on effects on other divisions identified
- Programme implications noted where they are material
The deliverable.
Consistent whatever the engagement, so it drops into how you already work.

Common questions on value engineering.
Yes, though the comparison is cleaner if the base estimate is ours, because both sides then share a basis. If not, the basis we used for the alternates is stated so the two can be reconciled.
Work that usually sits alongside this.
Most engagements combine more than one of these.
