Pavarini
McGovern utilizes value engineering (VE) analysis to ensure that
the proposed design provides the greatest value for the specified
budget in terms of cost, schedule, quality, and performance. Pavarini
McGovern distinguishes between a VE study, which analyzes the project
cost, schedule, design and construction against a baseline of functional
requirements, and a cost-reduction exercise which does not include
functional requirements. We will use a holistic approach to VE studies,
including, integrating and benefiting from the knowledge of the
owner, the entire design team, consultants, and various trade contractors
in the exercise. We believe that VE:
-
Relies on the use of accepted
analysis concepts & techniques
-
Is a systematic process that gives owners
multiple viable options
-
Identification & analysis of system & material options
-
Utilizes creative techniques
-
Is performed by an independent team, and
draws on the individual and collective viewpoints, experience,
and knowledge of all of its members
Ultimately, we are sensitive to the design intent of the design
team while adhering to the owner’s budget. This requires
building a team approach by first listening to all parties concerns
and ideas, and then as a group, formulating the most appropriate
direction to achieve the desired results. Our construction experience
and local market knowledge will complement the design team's efforts,
allowing for decisions and choices based on what works the best
and will be affordable within the project budget.
