Abstract

The possibility of reducing construction projects cost without affecting requirements necessary for performance is possible through applying Value Engineering technology that proved efficiency and high outcomes when applied on construction industry. It has become a basic requirement in the present time particularly during the world economic crisis. Whereas the application of this technology is on a minor scale in construction projects in Egypt, therefore this research targets to recognize the recommendations leading to facilitate the application of Value Engineering in construction projects in Egypt. In addition to that, the research aims at recognizing three important focal lines which are: the basics that Value Engineering relies on, the importance of advantages achieves from using this technology and recognition of obstacles that prevent the applying of this method through performing a questionnaire distributed on different sectors (owners, consultants, contractors and suppliers) which have a direct relation with Egyptian construction projects The factors affecting the previous four focal lines are recognized to be 24 factors out of 60 factors of the total questionnaire items. Results were analyzed by using SPSS program where questionnaire items were evaluated through measuring Reliability Coefficient to be 0.900 and Validity Coefficient to be 0.949. These values reflect that the measurement is stable and not self-conflicting and that it measures what it claimed to measure.
