I Value Engineers In 1973 a program was launched to recognize as

: Certified Value Specialists (CVS) those individuals The Society of American Value Engineers (SAVE) who have attained specific levels of professional i is a professional technical Society dedicated to competence. the advancement of Value Engineering through a better understanding of the principles, methods This program is to assure the public that the and concepts involved in value technology. Certified Value Specialist can provide professional services in the field of Value With a membership of 1500, SAVE has produced Engineering. The Certificate has been accepted results of far ranging influence. Businesses and by the federal government as a measure of governments throughout the world have become competence required by contractors rendering interested and have begun to apply the Value services to the General Services Administration I Engineering principles at an ever increasing rate. i The result is an organization with members in the SAVE has been recognized as a professional I United States and international members and group from its inception by various agencies of 1 affiliate organizations in 16 foreign countries. I the U.S. Government. Members have participated i on Department of Defense Committees or worked in conjunction with the Government to produce systems, contract requests, surveys, and other material for the government in its constant quest to reduce cost.

The national voice of SAVE was also heard as part of the testimony given by members before the U.S. Senate Public Works Committee Hearings in 1967 and again in June 1973 on Value Engineering Applications.

In addition, the Society has been recognized and listed in the Engineers Joint Council Register of Engineers of Distinction, second edition, December 1973.

Several local Chapters have also been recognized by Engineering Societies in their areas. Organization Scope Of Activity

The organization was founded in October 1959 as Value Engineering is employed to some degree in the Society of American Value Engineers. It is a most major companies and in major branches of non-profit professional society, governed by a the government. Its application is increasing and board of directors with national and its effectiveness is improving. The Society has regional officers elected by the membership. been a major factor in this action by its dedication to the basic objectives. SAVE has The National Business Office is located in the fostered the spreading of the knowledge and Detroit, Michigan suburb of Southfield, and techniques of Value Engineering to the benefit of provides a wide range of services to the its members and their companies as well as all membership in accordance with the objectives of levels of government. the Society. This Office coordinates activities through the national officers and regional vice SAVE and its members are dedicated to a system presidents. that breaks the bonds of conformity to achieve success within existing systems and organizations. It recognizes that value based on function is the key to profit and that this requires change. To work within these constraints Value Engineering requires a thorough understanding of the principles involved in the Job Plan in order to produce the kind of results that have attracted world-wide attention.

To grow in the future, SAVE must provide the impetus to bring Value Engineering to the attention of key managers in the commercial area of the economy. This will aid management in its effort to cope with Ihe profit squeeze as well as the shortage of materials and conservation of energy to achieve profitable results. i History In 1947 Mr. Harry Erlicher. Vice President of Only 26 persons attended the first annual meeting 'I Purchases at General Electric Co. recalled that of SAVE in 1960. However, interest grew rapidly during World War II shortages had often forced and in 1961, there were six local Chapters located the substitution of materials which reduced cost, in Dallas-Ft. Worth; Los Angeles; satisfied required functions; and in many cases, Utica-Syracuse; , Washington, D.C.; and improved performance. He concluded that a well the Watervliet Arsenal. By 1962, the number had organized study of alternate materials and increased to 12, by 1963, to 21. processes could produce cost improvements that were presently being overlooked. Mr. L. D. Miles, In 1975, SAVE consists of 41 local Chapters a Purchasing Agent with both engineering and divided into seven regions of the U.S. There are education degrees, was assigned to the problem. also international members in 15 foreign countries and affiliate organizations in two. Two conciusions were reached: 1. Conventional approaches stifled imagination by Member Services restricting thinking to existing objects and designs. The Society provides communications to the 2. members through two publications. Concentrating on function requirements INTERACTIONS is primarily dedicated to member produced greater mental freedom. and chapter activities and other newsworthy items. PERFORMANCE Magazine acts as a The system that resulted was called Value journal and provides articles of general interest Analysis. It was based on the premise that function as well as an outlet for member publications. A is the key, and function is what we pay for. National Roster is also provided to each member. It identifies officers, directors, chapters, and By 1949 the Value Analysis system was being members by name and locations. widely used by G.E. and had produced outstanding results. This created interest in other The VALUE ENGINEERING RESOURCES CENTER companies and Government agencies. is located at Miami [Jniversity in Middletown, Ohio.

SAVE also sponsors regional conferences and To achieve the Society's goal of promoting co-sponsors conferences with other Value Awareness, each SAVE member pledges organizations. In addition, they have cooperated to: closely with businesses and governments to sponsor joint seminars and workshops to Advance the art and science of Value Engineering introduce or develop knowledge of Value and the allied practices and disciplines which Engineering. sustain the economic strength of our nation.
