Value Management (VM) has been welcomed as a breakthrough in project management that can greatly increase the effectiveness of construction expenditure. This book provides both the theory of VM and detailed guidance on how to use the methodology in practice. The subject is brought to life through the inclusion of numerous descriptions, examples and case studies taken from the authors' experience of actual VM studies in the UK and in the USA.
