Reihe: Understanding Construction

Value management carries a documented imbalance. The research literature dwells on the phase where ideas are developed and neglects the preparation and implementation that surround it. This book treats all eight phases of the SAVE International Job Plan as one working sequence and shows what changes when each is run on data rather than on paper.

It is written for practitioners, for facilitators, cost managers and project leaders, and for the postgraduate students who will become them. Each chapter takes a phase and asks the same practical questions: what does the digital version of this actually look like, what does the evidence support, and what does it not? Readers get function analysis that survives contact with a live model, an evaluation chapter that treats uncertainty honestly, life-cycle cost and carbon written to current standards, and a savings pipeline that separates what was accepted from what was realised.

The book closes with two things a reader can use the same week: a five-rung maturity ladder for locating their own practice, and a twelve-month plan for moving it. Throughout, every claim is either cited or identified as the author's own professional judgement, so readers can see what rests on evidence and what rests on experience.
