As the monetary cornerstones of contract pricing agreements, accurate construction bid estimates are often the lynch pin of a project’s success. As such, ATEL provides value engineering consulting services. Whether you seek value-added construction estimates for your current project, you need assistance selecting between multiple bid packages or you simply desire validation of a selected bid before entering into contract, Value Engineering is techniques concerned with defining, maximizing and achieving “value for money”. At the initial stages of a project, value management provides an exceptionally powerful tool to explore a project’s objectives and aspirations from the owner’s perspective. Value management is a team-based approach used to define the owner’s objectives and ensure that best value, whole-life solutions are selected to satisfy those objectives. It is not necessarily about cost cutting. For example, it may be in an owner’s best interest.
