The Art of Value Engineering

You may hear the term "value engineering" used to describe the Thomas Custom Builders approach. But what does that really mean?

Simply, value engineering is a system we use to improve the ratio of function to cost. There are four basic steps in the value engineering process:

  1. Information gathering. Here, we look at existing conditions (for instance, your current structure for a remodeling project or the site for a new home) and pinpoint your budget and requirements for the project in terms of both function and style.
  2. Idea generation. In this step, we brainstorm creative and innovative ways to reconcile your vision with what you can afford.
  3. Evaluation. Each option is carefully evaluated for impact, cost and performance, from choosing designers and suppliers to material selection and scheduling.
  4. Selection. In the final step, we work with you to finalize the best alternative that meets your requirements while maximizing cost savings to you.
