Value Engineering
Saving time and money.
Going through plans to find areas to reduce or change things to save you money ultimately benefits everyone in the long run.
If plans are locked in and we are confident in them before anyone hits the ground running, all teams can be sure that we are building your project most efficiently.
Where it Adds Up
Alternatives to expensive materials
Light Fixtures
Hundreds of $100 light fixtures add up quickly. Swapping toward more economical options, like a $10 fixture, can save money at the tail end of your project.
Cables
Using metal-clad cables instead of conduit doesn't change anything quality-wise and saves you hundreds of thousands in the long run.
Wall Switches
There are usually 15,000 to 20,000 switches going into your build. Opting for a toggle switch over Decora adds up quickly.
Every single change is verified and officially reviewed with our engineering partners at Emerald City Engineers, who we have worked with for over 10 years.
Our Promises
“We believe in an honest return of credit when we delete parts of a plan.”
When we make changes in the value engineering stage, we provide 100% return credit to your budget. Edison Electric will never understate what that item actually cost.
From Our Resources
How catching electrical plan problems before contract saves everyone time and money.
A mixed-use project starting up is like a train leaving the station. When one change order comes up, it all grinds to a halt. Value engineering means catching those problems on paper, before they cost you time and money in the field.
