Question 3

1. Introduction
   The construction industry faces unique commercial and operational challenges [1]. Construction projects routinely experience evolaving expectations for project delivery and growing complexity, requiring construction companies to identify the optimal value approach for project delivery. Value engineering (VE) is increasingly being used in the construction industry to deliver value in a timely manner. Civil infrastructure projects have used VE for over half a century to drive value [2, 3]. While the fundamentals of VE have remained largely unchanged, there have been advancements to maximize the benefits of the methodology and applications that extend beyond project cost.

In the construction field, VE application principally focuses on achieving the required project outcomes with the lowest overall project life cycle cost. As the construction industry evolves to deliver more value for money and meet increasingly complex delivery requirements, VE has an important role to play in meeting stakeholder value expectations. Typically, firms seek to deliver the function with the lowest overall project life cycle cost, exploring the use of alternative materials, design innovations, process reorganization to optimize efficiency, adapting transformative construction methods, optimizing time and costs, increasing quality, improving safety, and minimizing environmental impacts [4]. However, the perception of value ultimately hinges upon the criteria set for the delivery of each particular project.

Changes in the construction industry have increased the importance of VE in achieving value in the delivery of a wide range of projects. International construction projects tend to be more complicated than their domestic counterparts, and VE applications in such endeavours are still in the development stage [5]. While VE has an established role in the construction industry, VE applications in the construction domain need to continuously evolve to meet the changing needs of the industry. Furthermore, in many countries, good VE practices are still relatively limited in the construction industry [6]. Given the VE value proposition, this research reviews research on VE published between 2007 and 2021, seeking to provide a clear picture of VE applications in the construction domain with an eye to developing helpful insights into the development of best practices and to identify research gaps that need to be addressed.
