FY 2010 Value Engineering Summary Report

The following table compiles the data traditionally collected by the FHWA to summarized successes and achievements in the VE program. The FY 2010 report also includes data connecting the recommendations approved through VE studies and implemented VECPs to the benefits provided to the various functions and components of the projects that were studied.

Legend:

  • Return On Investment = Value of Approved Recommendations/Total Cost of VE Studies
  • % of Costs Saved = Value of Approved Recommendations/Estimated Costs of Projects Studied
  • Total Savings Achieved = Value of Approved Recommendations + Value of Approved VE Change Proposals
  • All costs shown are millions of dollars
  • Columns on some of the wide tables may be not be visible. Use the scroll bar at the bottom of the table or swipe to view columns to the right.
