Nowadays, Iranian designers, contractors, and government agents encounter with a lot of problems in their construction projects. The main reasons of the occurring problems can be incorrect designing, the perplexity of technology, variety of expertise needed, plenty of activities and number of stakeholders engaged. For these reasons, the project is not usually completed in due time and in the amount of the predicted cost scope. Value engineering (VE) is a problem-solving method (PSM) based on the systematic job plan and creativity. VE aims at reviewing the project and identifying the opportunity of saving project cost and time. Regretfully, in the same cases, VE is not adjusted with needs, specifications, and limits of project construction and that cannot remove the problems. This paper can use concepts and techniques of total quality management (TQM) for developed VE structure and increase its effect on the construction project. To create a new model, first, VE, TQM, and problem of construction project were reviewed. Next, using other accomplished researchers in this field of study, development potentials of VE was identified. Finally, a new model was issued based on the studies.   Manuscript profile

The main objective of this study is to investigate value engineering and its impact on the dimensions of organizational performance in the Water and Wastewater Administration of West Azerbaijan Province and present guidelines for the successful implementation of value engineering in order to enhance organizational performance in the mentioned office. The theoretical framework of the research is based on S.Iyer’s value engineering operational model as well as Kaplan and Norton’s operational model of organizational performance. In the regard, one main hypothesis and four minor hypotheses have been put forward. The statistical population consists of 375 staff members of the Water and Wastewater Administration of West Azerbaijan Province, from among whom a sample of 190 was selected through the use of Cochran’s formula and stratified random sampling technique. The measurement tool is a questionnaire, which was distributed among the subject. Before testing the hypotheses, the researchers used Kolmogorov-Smirnov test in order to evaluate the normal distribution of the variables. The results showed that the variables of value engineering and organizational performance do not have a significant difference from the normal distribution. Thus, for data analysis within the parametric statistics frame, Pearson’s correlation coefficient and linear regression were used. The results indicated that about 0.287 of the changes in the dependent variable (organizational performance) and its four dimensions (personnel satisfaction, customer satisfaction, organizational effectiveness, and financial results of the market) are accounted for by the changes in the independent variable (value engineering), which is also the indicator of the positive and direct relationship between the two variables.

In this research, besides introducing both methods QFD&VE, their different benefits and aspects have been investigated by studying the effect of cost as a main value engineering dimension and independent variable on QFD. The method of operation has been explained by a practical example and the required data have been collected by a questionnaire completed by the managers and specialists of the auto-part manufacturers of the province. This questionnaire's reliability (α=0.828) and validity were approved, and the hypothesis test was analyzed by t-test (comparison of pairs) in SPSS 15 software.  The hypothesis test by SPSS15 software showed that all of the three hypotheses are accepted. So according to the gained numbers and meaningful difference between the states of (without using VE) and (by using VE) can conclude that the value engineering can be the cause of QFD method improvement. Finally, the advised method presented by a practical example and some suggestions for the planning of applying the above method were submitted. Manuscript profile

The aim of the present research is to design the algorithm of the cost management of a business entity in Tabriz Iran Khodro Industrial Group, and it involves the integration of the two methods of target based costing and value engineering. To do so, first a sample including 47 managers and specialists of Tabriz Iran Khodro Company were selected and a questionnaire was distributed among them. To test the hypotheses of the research, we used average population and ANOVA test. The results of the research showed that profit management and the type of relationship with materials and machinery suppliers for Tabriz Iran Khodro Company have a meaningful relationship with cost management including target costing and value engineering. But customer satisfaction and designing new products didn't have a meaningful relationship with cost management. Also, the results showed that regarding the respondents' viewpoints, using cost management technique cannot be a suitable alternative for the traditional costing system in Tabriz Iran Khodro Company. Finally, the research results showed that regarding the respondents' viewpoints, using cost management technique is not considered to be a necessity in Tabriz Iran Khodro Industrial Group.

    Regarding the notification of the Resistance Economic Policy in Iran, by Ayatollah Khamenei the supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution on the basis of the first article of the principle 110 of the constitution, which was studied in the Expediency Council and communicated to the heads of the three forces, some factors were considered in 24-part policy including decrease of dependence on oil and gas sales,  increase in production, employment. In accordance with this communicated policy, value engineering can be used for improvement of project management in the long term. It can act in the time of sanctions not only as an effective way and light and being an efficient instrument of economic policy, but also it can meet the country's independence. To fulfill this need, we must use a functional approach to value engineering instead of the traditional approach. which detects components that impose unnecessary costs and wasting time and removes them. The main objective of this paper is creating  a conceptual model of the impact of value engineering phases for the realization of policies of resistance economy and analysis of the impact among them using structural modeling techniques. For this purpose, 170 questionnaires of PNU universities of Ardebil and East Azarbaijan provinces were collected. After confirming the validity and dynamics of the questionnaire, data analysis became possible using structural modeling and by (Spss) and (Amos) softwares. The results showed that the total index value engineering can Fulfill to approximately 89% of the policies of Resistance economy.        Manuscript profile
