Function Cost Analysis
Function Cost Analysis from the Perspective of Competitive Advantage by Edwin B. Dean Function cost analysis is used by value engineers to determine the cost of each product . In the USA this is typically determined by a bottom up analysis of the cost of all items, components, labor, etc., necessary for the product to perform each function. In Japan, cost tables are often used (Yoshikawa, Innes, and Mitchell, 1990). If a function is not essential, then it may be removed from the product and the associated cost may also be removed. If a function is essential, then alternate methods of performin...

A Primer on Cost for COSTLESS
A Primer on Cost for COSTLESS Foreword I believe that cost is probably the most phenomena we deal with every day. Anyone you meet randomly on the street can talk at length about cost, yet even accountants often cant even add it up properly because accounting mixes the metaphors of cost and value. This same person on the street cannot tell you how much their next car will cost because there are so many variables involved. These variables include inflation from now to the data of purchase, the type of car, the features of the car, the dealer they will buy it from, the existence of manufacturer r...

Design for Cost
Design for Cost from the Perspective of Competitive Advantageby Edwin B.

For some years now, the Department of Defense has been asking contractors to design to cost. Each of the services has defined a design to cost process.
