Value Engineering Programs Overview

Value Engineering Programs Overview

Constructability Studies

The programs objective is to impart knowledge covering core areas of plant design to enhance constructability and improve construction process . Studies , workshops and research focus on this program . The program covers effective cost saving in constructability in to make maximum use of knowledge and experience in all phases of construction including planning the construction process , designing procurement , and to conduct field operations to improve construction process

Lean Construction

Lean construction covers how to plan and manage the work of construction . It saves

time and improves quality of construction process . That is construction can be accomplished in much less time with proper planning and quality output

Nature of Program

.Lean is fundamentally empowering all workers to be partners in your continuous improvement efforts . You ask them to make their work easier and more interesting . You challenge them to grow every day on the job . You ask them to cut costs , to improve safety , to improve quality and reduce the time line to deliver superior products and services to their customers .And then leave you the challenge to figure it out for yourself . They rarely ever had a cookbook approach for you . In fact , Ohno would never let anything be written down on how to do lean . He wanted it to be a system that allowed for constant change . Sure , their disciples created the Kaizen Blitz , which became a million dollar product for them . While others have created Six Sigma another million dollar product . Somehow we just resist change until everyone is doing it then we jump on the bandwagon (Lean construction

Green Construction and Sustainability

Nature of Program

How are they implemented

Relation to Value Engineering

The core content covers the area of green construction and sustainability

Implementation

Establishment of New plant has become very mandatory for the proper working and progress of the company . As older plant is causing huge losses and increased labor cost . The older machinery repair and maintenance is costing 5 million annually . This is also increasing labor workforce due to inadequate plant machinery and declining working condition

With implementation of New Technology and new machinery labor force and cost will be reduced dramatically and work will be enhanced

This includes several tasks

Factory management

Plant operations management

Production management

Operations management

Manufacturing

Assembly automation

Automated assembly

Automated manufacturing

Industrial automation

Flexible manufacturing

Robotic work cell

Robotic assembly

Assembly process

Assembly sequence planning

Continuous flow manufacturing

High volume , low cost product assembly

Manufacturing process development

Production line

Process engineering

Production engineering

Continuous motion assembly

Operation analysis

Company 's plan for financing the construction

Target : New Products Creations competitive edge in the market place depends on getting this new component plant built and functioning within the next 48 months . A lot depends upon securing the financing , including your future with the company

Funding for this project will come from a consortium of Venture Capitalists , a bond offering and bank loans

Flexible manufacturing will make new plan respond to the rising...
