Value Engineering

The FHWA proposes to issue a regulation on value engineering (VE) that would require its application to selected Federal-aid highway projects, when funded under the FHWA's grant-in-aid process. The proposed regulation would require State highway agencies (SHA) to establish and administer VE programs; it outlines minimum VE program requirements and provides guidance in establishing, administering, and monitoring a VE program. This proposed regulation is considered necessary to implement 23 U.S.C. 106(d), which provides that, in such cases as the Secretary deems advisable, the Secretary may require a value engineering or other cost reduction analysis of plans, specifications, and estimates for proposed projects on any Federal-aid highway. DATES: Comments must be received on or before January 17, 1995.
