Slide 8.14
Miles – definition of value analysis
‘A philosophy implemented by the use of a specific set of techniques, a body of knowledge
and a group of learned skills. It is an organised, creative approach which has for its purpose
the efficient identification of unnecessary cost, i.e. cost which provides neither quality nor use
nor life, nor appearance nor customer features.’
The value analysis checklist
1. Does its use contribute value?
2. Is its cost proportionate to its usefulness?
3. Does it need all its features?
4. Is there anything better for the intended use?
5. Can a usable part be made by a lower cost method?
6. Can a standard product be found which will be usable?
7. Is it made on proper tooling – considering the quantities used?
8. Are the specified tolerances and finishes really necessary?
9. Do material, reasonable labour, overhead and profit total its cost?
10. Can another dependable supplier provide it for less?
11. Is anyone buying it for less?
