Part 2
D31VR – Value and Risk Management
An Evaluation of Current and Potential Future Application of
Value and Risk Management into Construction Project Management Professional Services in the Construction Sector in Singapore
1.0 Introduction
In today ‘s progressively globalised and complex universe, the building industry becomes more competitory and complicated, more challenges and alterations have to be faced by the administrations for the endurance and improvement. Therefore, more advanced techniques and solutions have to be adopted by the administrations for go oning betterment. Client is the one funding the undertaking, and is the nucleus of the building industry and the drive force for the betterment ( Othman, 2005 ) . In today ‘s building industry, one of the most important issues confronting is accomplishing client satisfaction. From the study showed that there is really few building undertakings are finished on clip or at the budgeted cost and the finished merchandises do non run into client ‘s demand and outlook, it happened the same in Singapore. Due to this scenario, the usage of value and hazard direction in building industry is steadily increasing as clients expect better consequences from their investing in the undertaking and besides more administrations realised the job faced during the building phase can be reduced by usage of value and hazard direction in undertaking early phase.
In Singapore, value and hazard direction is non widely used in building industry comparison to other industries such as fabrication industry. Due to higher demand and outlook from the client today, value and hazard direction has been progressively recognised as being appropriate for the building. Value direction is a uninterrupted procedure, which all the constituents involved in building are critically assessed to determine whether better value options are available ( Crown, 2003 ) . The building industry is classified as a bad industry because of its complexness and disconnected nature. Hence, hazard direction is a must to be used in every individual undertaking in Singapore regardless the size of the undertaking. Risk direction is a go oning procedure throughout the undertaking life rhythm. It is progressively popular and besides of import to be adopted because it can supply value for money ( Othman, 2005 ) . Hazard and uncertainness have potential in detrimental effects for the building undertakings, which the public presentation, productiveness, quality and the budgeted cost of the undertaking will be affected. Hazard can non be eliminated but it can be transferred or minimised ( Mills, 2001 ) .
This paper aims to supply the rating of current application of value and hazard direction and the obstructions to value and hazard direction development in the building sector. In add-on, the potency of the future application of the value and hazard direction will besides be discussed.
2.0 Literature Review
2.1 Definition of Value and Risk Management
Value direction is a systematic and multi-disciplinary attempt, which the maps of the undertaking is straight analysed to accomplish the lowest overall life rhythm cost with best value ( Othman, 2005 ) . Harmonizing to Male and Kelly ( 1998 ) , value direction is the squad based “ process-driven ” methodological analysis to present a service or undertaking at optimal public presentation and cost without hurt to quality. By utilizing this squad of experts, it allows value direction procedure to place best solutions for design and building which provide the best value for money with respect to the client demands. The value direction procedure encourages the better apprehension of the aims and positions of assorted stakeholders, and the effectual accomplishment of these aims ( Shen and Yu, 2012 ) . The relationship between value, quality, map and cost can be represented by the equation as follows:
Value = ( Function + Quality ) / Cost
Where Function = the specific worth that a design must execute
Quality = the client ‘s demands and outlooks
Cost = the undertaking life rhythm cost
Value direction purposes to optimize the undertaking life rhythm cost and better the value through placing remotion of unneeded costs while the quality, public presentation and other factors will run into client ‘s outlook. Workshops of value direction to be developed at undertaking early phase, it enables cardinal stakeholders participate in the briefing procedure to clear up their involvements and demands and to make committedness to the solutions ( Shen and Yu, 2012 ) . It will bring forth better apprehension of client demands and concern demands through workshops. Job program based on value direction techniques will be produced and is characterised by the stages as below ( Shen and Liu, 2004 ) .

Figure 1: Outline of the Job Plan
Risk direction is the decision-making procedure affecting detail consideration of hazards which can hold important impact on the concluding result of the undertaking. Risk direction in building includes the development and keeping a articulation hazard registry, and placing and analysing the hazards in footings of earnestness and likeliness of the hazard ( Crown, 2003 ) . Harmonizing to Mills ( 2001 ) , the earnestness of the hazards can be measured as the chance of the activity and its effects or loss:
RI = L x C
Where RI = Risk Impact
L = Likelihood
C = Consequence
Risk direction is a go oning activity throughout the life rhythm of the undertaking and the value of money can be achieved by cut downing hazard in the undertaking ( Othman, 2005 ) . The systematic sequence of the hazard direction is described as below ( Mills, 2001 ) .
Measure 1 a†’ Risk designation
Measure 2 a†’ Hazard analysis
Measure 3 a†’ Risk response
Measure 4 a†’ Feedback
The effects of serious hazards occurred in the undertaking can be really detrimental, it can do the clip and cost of the undertaking overruns and turn the profitable undertaking into a loss-making venture.
3.0 Value and Risk Management in Construction Project Management
3.1 Current Application of Value and Risk Management
In Singapore, the usage of value and hazard direction in edifice undertakings is relatively higher than substructure undertakings due to the complexness of the undertaking. It is utile to utilize value and hazard direction in undertaking early phase, which can hold better apprehension of client demands and better value for money can be achieved. In order to place the possible demands of the undertaking, the value and hazard direction adviser is engaged by the client for appraisal the proposed undertaking. The value and hazard direction adviser identifies the concern needs through workshop and guarantee it achieves the client outlooks ( Othman, 2005 ) . Value and put on the line direction facilitator is appointed and cardinal stakeholders are selected to organize the value and hazard direction squad. The squad members define all the issues and screen through in item to guarantee the build determination can be proceed to run into the client demand. Then after, the value and hazard direction workshops are organised to garner all information and exhaustively studied in order to supply best solutions for the foreseen job. Some common job that happened in the edifice undertaking in Singapore is showed as follows ( Hlaing & A ; Singh & A ; Tiong and Ehrlich, 2012 ) :
Undervaluing measure.
Sharp and sudden addition of stuffs monetary value.
Human factors – one or more people ne’er perform their functions and duties.
Misconstruing and differences between squad members.
Hence, the best alternate solutions such as usage of stuff fluctuation index have to be generated by the squad members to get the better of the common job. The value direction technique that normally used is functional analysis. In functional analysis, the functional demand of the undertaking is generated and reflected by FAST diagram, which are the thoughts raised by the squad members. Beside it, the undertaking budget and contract period besides need to be considered in the workshops.
Risk direction is non one-off activity, it is the uninterrupted procedure throughout the undertaking life rhythm. The application of hazard direction at undertaking early phase clarifies the aims and aids in polishing the undertaking brief ( Mills, 2001 ) . Hazard is anticipated every bit many as possible, so that the unneeded cost can be reduced to minimal, which straight help client to salvage cost. The possible hazards of the undertaking are identified, analysed and responded by squad members. There are few chief possible hazards in edifice undertaking and it was extremely concerned by the governments of Singapore such as Building and Construction Authority ( BCA ) and Ministry of Manpower ( MOM ) . These chief potency hazards are listed as follows:
Hazard Identified
Hazard Analysed
Hazard Control
Falling from tallness
Bad hurts / dead
Provision of house railing.
Use safety hardness.
Falling object
Injuries
Provide gimmick gauze.
Erect toe board.
Topple of Crane
Bad hurts / dead
Provide stable platform.
Ensure outriggers are decently extended.
Lift within safe working burden.
Table 1: Main Potential Risk in Singapore
Besides that, other hazard factors need to be concerned include velocity of the building, undertaking location, complexness and acquaintance of the work.
3.2 Obstacles to Value and Risk Management Development
Good quality of the merchandise is the of import aim by the Singapore authorities. The authorities is underscoring the bringing of good coatings merchandise and guarantee good quality control on stuffs and building plants. However, overemphasis on quality has created conservative attitude of building professionals against creative activity, alteration and invention ( Shen and Liu, 2004 ) . Any advanced thought on possible impact on quality could be stifled even though it may give some clip shortening or cost nest eggs of the undertaking. Therefore, the effectivity of the value and hazard direction survey will be affected by this conservative attitude. The good proposals generated by value and hazard direction survey are unable to implement efficaciously if the conservative attitude can non be changed.
In Singapore, value and hazard direction is non widely used in building industry. Lack of practical counsel for implementing the value and hazard direction is one of the factors doing low application of value and hazard direction in building industry ( Shen and Liu, 2004 ) . This is because the features of the building industry are non introduced consequently in value and hazard direction books. Practical model has to be established for implementing the value and hazard direction in order to advance the usage of value and hazard direction in the building industry.
4.0 Benefits of Adoption of Value and Risk Management
The usage of value and hazard direction is more applied on larger undertaking graduated table in Singapore. This is due to big graduated table undertaking is more complex and more alternate solutions have to be applied in the building to guarantee the undertaking advancement with minimum job. To accomplish best value of money and client demands, the appointed value and hazard direction squad develops the undertaking undertaking and brief through workshops before kick start of any physical plants. The planned series of workshops of the undertaking incorporates with undertaking programme get downing at project description-strategic degree, and so after go oning to building proficient degree. The lesson learned in the workshops can help in bettering the public presentation of the undertaking.
Risk direction is non a new construct, it is adopted by bulk building houses in Singapore to register, analyze and command the hazards before the beginning of building plants. This is because the constitution of hazard appraisal is required under Singapore jurisprudence. The productiveness and public presentation of the undertaking will be badly affected if the hazard is non being good managed. The benefits of current application of value and hazard direction are as follows ( Othman, 2005 ; Weatherhead & A ; Owen & A ; Hall, 2005 ) :
Better apprehension of client aims and demands to forestall otiose resource in production clip, design clip and the cost of alteration.
Client demands are identified at the undertaking early phase and respond in the brief development to understate subsequently alteration orders.
The positions and demands of the stakeholders are perceived and reflected in the brief development and acquiring stakeholders ‘ committedness to transport out the selected determination through workshops.
To advance the common squad apprehension and near co-ordinated attempt to run into the client aims.
Foreseen job is exhaustively studied and bring forth the advanced options in order to cut down the unneeded cost.
Potential hazards are identified, analysed and responded to cut down the amendss caused to the undertaking.
Accomplishment of best value of money by cut downing hazard and unneeded cost.
Successful value and hazard direction demands committedness from the senior direction, ownership and apprehension of the procedure. The senior direction aware the of import of value and hazard direction in order to obtain the optimal balance of benefit in relation to put on the line and cost.
By seeing the effectual result by usage of value and hazard direction in the edifice undertaking, more and more undertakings such as substructure undertakings are begin following value and hazard direction techniques in order to accomplish the value and outlooks. Due to tight contract period, high client ‘s demand, increasing stuff and labor costs in Singapore, there is the great challenge to equilibrate and accomplish the aims of the undertaking. Therefore, usage of value and hazard direction technique is the best indispensable tools assist to accomplish their coveted aims. In the value and hazard direction survey, the best value is non about cost film editing, but is to better the apprehension of the client demands and concern demands.
5.0 Potential of Future Application of Value and Risk Management
In the developed state like Singapore, the concern environment is more competitory. Due to this more dynamic and competitory concern environment, it fosters the development of value and hazard direction and increase consciousness of the usage of value and hazard direction in building industry ( Shen and Liu, 2004 ) . In progressively globalization of universe ‘s economic system, the client outlooks will increase bit by bit and the complexness and troubles of the undertaking will be increased every bit good. Therefore, the demand for the value and hazard direction is even desired for better return value and quality.
Application of value and hazard direction has possible to advance the sustainable design and development during the building undertaking life span ( Shen and Yu, 2012 ) . The functional value of the undertaking can be maximised by usage of value and hazard direction, which by pull offing the development from construct to utilize. By utilizing the value and hazard direction, the consciousness of the sustainability issues can be raised by the building forces and let the integrating of sustainability into the undertakings. With the systematic occupation program, the participants can be guided efficaciously to see the sustainability issues throughout the undertaking life rhythm.
In comparing to the sustainability issue, value and hazard direction besides contributes towards the green edifice design, but it is limited. Integration of sustainability with value and hazard direction is proposed and practical guidelines to be developed which enable the green edifice issues to be considered and evaluated during the workshops ( Shen and Yu, 2012 ) . The characteristics of value and hazard direction workshops such as cognition airing chance, procedure effectivity, strategic clip and effectual techniques and tools could steer the participants to see sustainability and green edifice issues. The sustainable building minimises the waste generated ; maximises the energy efficiency and usage of recycled stuffs ; minimises and optimises the usage of natural stuffs and natural resources ; minimises hazards of wellness to those who construct the edifice and industry the stuffs and provides the needed quality for the optimal monetary value.
Profound reclamation of the value direction thoughts and patterns could be provided by value direction for green edifice design. The appropriate schemes to be used for better integrating of green constructing design and value direction, which will heighten the possibility of high public presentation edifice with best value of money in future.
6.0 Decision
The usage of value and hazard direction is instead of import to increase the overall public presentation of the undertaking. It helps to supply better apprehension of the client demands and outlooks. Furthermore, the improved and cost-efficient solutions are generated to give better value that meet client demands every bit good as cut downing uncertainnesss through hazard designation, analysis and reacting. Value and hazard direction is progressively recognised as the best indispensable tools to help to accomplish the coveted aims. It is expected that the demand for the usage of value and hazard direction in building industry will be increased and the full potency of value and hazard direction can be to the full developed when the practical usher develops and incorporates with the latest value and hazard direction methodological analysis.
The demand for sustainability in building industry is increasing for the past two decennaries. The thought of sustainability should be considered in undertaking early phase and it should incorporate into activities in undertaking development procedure and turn to the sustainability construct in the pre-workshop stage of a value and hazard direction survey. This is because the potency of value and hazard direction in advancing the sustainable design and development during the building undertaking life span.
