AN APPLICATION OF VALUE ANALYSIS CONCEPTS TOWARD MORE EFFICIENT ATTAINMENT OF FIGHTER SQUADRON OBJECTIVES.

Abstract

During the last two decades, Value Analysis/Engineering has emerged as an effective cost reduction discipline in product refinement, purchasing, and national defense. Within this paper, the concepts and methods of application of Value Analysis/Engineering are reviewed. The process of Value Analysis is considered to be applicable to a fighter aircraft squadron for the purpose of achieving higher combat readiness within time and resource constraints. A basic plan is presented to provide the fundamental structure and method of implementation of the technique for squadron organizational improvement. (Author)
