Meaning of value
Value is a broad term often used to denote cost
and Price. However, we would go a step further
and introduce the concept of function as well
into the definition of value. Value can be divided
into the following classifications :-
Use or Functional Value:- the properties and
qualities which accomplish a use, work or
service.

Esteem Value :- The properties, features or
attractiveness which cause us to want to own it.
Cost Value :- The sum of labour, material and
various other costs required to produce it.
Exchange Value :- Its properties or qualities
which enable us to exchange it for something
else we want.

Origin of value analysis
• Value engineering or value analysis had its birth during the Second World War. Needless to say, this was a fertile period for its growth due to world-wide shortage of essential materials.
• Lawrence D. Miles was responsible for developing the technique and naming it.

• Through its application, G.E.C saved nearly 70 million dollars and after that it was a question of time before the technique caught on and spread like wild fire.
• In recent years, it has also been known as “Molecular engineering” or “Vertical thinking”.

Introduction of value analysis
• value analysis aims at a systematicidentification and elimination of unnecessarycosts resulting in the increased use ofalternatives, less expensive material, cheaperdesigns, less costly methods of manufacturingetc. to provide the same performance, qualityand in a decrease of overall unit costs andconsequntly greater profits.
• For example:- We can convert a stainless steelpart into steel or even fiber-glass and thus savecost. Tvs Suzuki‟s choice of fiber-glass forspectra scooter has reduced its product-cost.

Example of value analysis
• Suppose a housewife is out shopping for
vegetables. There are four varieties of
tomatoes to choose from, costing Rs.15
,Rs.20,Rs.25 and Rs.30 respectively.
Which will she buy? Quality? All are of
good “quality.” price ? Obviously not. Then
the vegetable vendor won‟t be able to sell
the other three qualities.

• The answer is simple. she will buy that quality
which serves her purpose. for example, if her
husband‟s boss is coming for dinner and
tomatoes are required for the salad, the Rs.30
variety will be the obvious choice. If she wants to
make tomato- rasam , then she will purchase
the Rs.15 quality. In other words, her choice will
depend on the function the tomato is to perform.
Each of the four varieties has a value and his
value depends on the function it is expected to
accomplish. This small example illustrates the
approach of value analysis.

Meaning of value analysis
• Value analysis is a study of character-wise costof an items such as quality, design, method ofmanufacture, consumption aspect, etc., with aview to reducing the ultimate cost of the item.Value analysis also refers to the determination ofthe value of items proposed to be bought so as toexamine the worth of money to be spent in buyingthose items.
• Value analysis takes into consideration the qualityof the material in relation to its functional valueand price. Value analysis helps in taking decisionabout what is actually required and what should bepayed so as to derive the maximum benefits butpay the maximum for the same function.

• Value analysis is, in essence, a study offunction. The function of a part, ormaterial, or service is the job it does.Value is a price we pay for a productprocess, material or service required toperform a specific function in an efficientway.
• Value analysis is a technique which goesinto systematic and complete investigationof combinations like quality, service, priceetc. with a view to determine the functionalutility of the item.

Definition of value analysis
1. Value analysis can be defined as an organizedapproach to the identification and elimination ofunnecessary cost. Unnecessary cost is Costwhich provides neither use, nor life, nor quality,nor appearance, nor customer features.
2. Value analysis is an organized procedure forefficient identification of unnecessary cost.
3. value analysis is the study of the relationshipof design, function and cost of any project,material or manufactured by more efficientprocess, change in source of supply(external orinternal), or possible elimination orincorporation in a related item.

4. Value analysis is the organized and systematic
study of every element of cost in a part,
material or service to make certain it fulfils its
function at the lowest possible cost; it employs
techniques which identify the function the user
wants from a product or service; it establishes
by comparison the appropriate cost for each
function; then it causes the required
knowledge, creativity and initiative to be used
to provide each function for the lowest cost.

5) Value analysis is an organized creative
approach which has for its purpose the efficient
identification of unnecessary cost;i.e., cost which
provides neither quality, nor use, nor life, nor
appearance, nor customer features.

Purpose of value analysis
• Elimination of an item altogether i.e.
identifying its unnecessary costs .
• Utilization of standard components of cost
reduction.
• Examination of all features of an item.
• Examination of cheaper quality materials
for their advantageous use in the
organization.

• Examination of costlier quality in relation to itsfunctional value and life.
• Examination of alternative source & price inrelation to the money spent and realization ofits worth in due course.
Making them simpler, there can be threepurposes of value analysis;
• The objective of „ best buy‟
• The objective of „ saving in cost‟
• The objective of enhancing the worth.

Benefits from value analysis
There are several direct and indirect benefitswhich can accrue from the introduction andpractice of value analysis. Some of these are:
1]. A reduction in cost of existing products orsystems.
2]. Prevention of unnecessary cost in newproducts or systems. These two arequantifiable and can be easily measured.
3]. The introduction of value analysis leads tooverall cost consciousness and a generalattitude change toward costs.

4]. Product value gets improved and the quest for
new materials and processes get encouraged; it
provides a great boost for import substitution.
5]. Systems relating to cost and estimating usually
benefit from reorganization necessitated by the
wider use of cost information.
6]. Finally, a greater return of investment results. in
other words, greater profits accrue.
7]. Value analysis is a very important tool in
contracts, and it is good to have a VE incentive
clause to encourage a contractor to reduce the
costs. There could be sharing of resultant
benefits in a fair [email protected]

LIMITATIONS
• As each coin has two sides, VA also suffers from variouslimitations. They are as under;
Value analysis, if applied to all the materials andproducts, will prove very time consuming and expensivetoo. Hence, it is generally adopted on a selectiveapproach basis.
Value analysis technique should be used only, underthe supervision of a senior officer, by the analysts whoshould be an expert and an experienced person wellversed in their job otherwise the likely remain a distantillusion and the technique may only prove an addedburden for the concerning unit.

• Value analysis does not have any refined
theoretical basis. It is simply a technique grown
out of experience in the assembly line of a
factory, field of construction works or out of the
spot observations in the activities of industrial
and business units and in their different
divisions.

conclusion
• Value analysis investigates whether the
buyer is obtaining the most economical
material or equipment suitable for the end
product or end use. The approach is
concerned less with price negotiating and
bargaining, than with the right quality,
design , specification , standards and
methods of manufacture.

• The main objective of value analysis is to
reduce cost so it is useful but there are
certain disadvantages of its like time
consuming etc so it has two effect positive
and negative also.
