Rangkuman: 

As some new issues such as urban redevelopment, urban balanced development, and urban

competitiveness have become more important worldwide, the mixed-use developments of

program level, which is, unlike the project-level, supposed to connect various individual projects,

have been actively carried out. It is highly required that the program-level facilities with multiple

projects and diverse stakeholders meet their original functions, create new values by maximizing

the land efficiency and connecting different uses, and make OM&R(operation, maintenance, and

replacement) more efficient. Therefore the research related to VE(value engineering) application

for program-level facilities, which could support the value enhancement and the creative

thinking, needs to be performed. In Korea, as for the construction projects which cost over ten

million dollars, it is mandated to perform VE more than once respectively at both design

development phase and construction document phase for cost reduction, function improvement,

and value maximization. In the meantime, VE needs to be applied at the early stage such as

planning phase, in order to get maximum effect for large-scaled program-level facilities.

However, to do this, some problems have been raised as follows: 1) VE job plan oriented to

single project and design phase, 2) Difficulty on VE subject selection according to the variety of

functions and spaces in program-level facilities, 3) Lack of connection between VE subject

selection and function analysis, and 4) Lack of consistency between VE subject selection and

idea creation. Especially, VE subject selection has more important meaning on program-level

facilities where multi-projects are closely connected. And the careful and efficient subject

selection in program-level facilities could result in the great possibility of value improvement. To

apply VE efficiently at the planning phase of large-scaled program-level facilities, this study tries

to suggest the effective method for the subject selection. In addition, the connection process of

the subject selection and the functional analysis, and the process to support the effective idea

creation are to be proposed. Also the similarities and differences between 'a single project' and

'capital construction program with multiple projects' in terms of VE application, are presented.
