EN 1325:2014 (E) 4 Introduction This European standard defines terms for Value Management (VM), to develop consistent language for use in optimising performance and productivity for organizations, projects, products, and services. Value Management is founded on the concept of value and on the functional based approach. Value Management approaches and methods are used on the general management level of companies and organizations, for the development of products and services, or to work out the optimised solution of many kinds of industrial and organizational problems. The concern of these approaches and methods for the end purposes, or functions, of the matter examined, and their search for the optimisation of these functions in relation to the means, resources or expenditures which are necessary for their attainment, are very important factors of the overall efficiency and competitiveness of companies and organizations. European Standards are being developed to promote unified concepts and the highest level of expertise and efficacy in the European countries. In order to achieve a common way of practice of these methods, and a common understanding of the standards it is essential to define and standardise in a vocabulary standard the precise meaning of the specialised terms which are used. If the standards on Value Management methods which are just now being developed require a correction or adaptation of terms and definitions then this will be taken into account by a revision of this standard. SIST EN 1325:2014



EN 1325:2014 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard defines language for optimising performance and productivity by using Value Management. This European Standard defines terms in Value Management (VM). This European Standard aims to: — Promote and define common language for Optimising Performance and Productivity by using Value Management; — Define the main terms of the “Value Management (VM), Value Analysis (VA), Function Analysis (FA)” field; — Define terms for important methods and tools; — Establish a single source for generic terms; — Create accessible language for international communication; — Publish useful definitions for specialists and non specialists; — Clarify differences which may exist in language where a word in common use is used to signify a specific meaning in Value Management; — Reduce the risk of inconsistency between standards applied internationally. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. NOTE When a term, which is defined in this vocabulary, is used in the definition of another term, it is printed in bold type. 2.1 General terms related to value 2.1.1 value
measure which expresses how well an organization, project, or product satisfies stakeholders’ needs in relation to the resources consumed
Figure 1 — The concept of value SIST EN 1325:2014



EN 1325:2014 (E) 6 Note 1 to entry: Value informs assessment (or judgement) of solutions: it is an index of relevance, constituting a decision-making support. The concept is relevant to all possible scenarios and can also include a decrease of negative impacts with constant services, through an increase of services, innovative approaches, and integrating an increase in the services with the reduction of negative impacts. Note 2 to entry: Value is relevant for any type of object: tangible or non tangible product, service, process, organization. Note 3 to entry: All the combinations of increase / reduction of the provided services and the consumed resources are possible, subject to yielding an improvement of the general result. An approach of « cost reduction » does not improve value when it entails a reduction of the provided services which is not controlled or an increase of the negative consequences. Note 4 to entry: Satisfaction of need can be assessed only with regard to reference functions which define the supposed needs or provided services and constraints to be met. This logic fundamentally distinguishes the value management approach from any other approach of optimisation, design or more generally of problem solving. Note 5 to entry: According to the subject of the project, it is relevant to consider satisfaction (or contributions) from a point of view wider than the reference functions defining the provided services, and being possibly linked to: — positive effects for the environment, social, or broader economy; — gains and advantages for the parties involved in the project; — uncertainties as to what benefits, foreseen or not (upside potential) may be required or achieved; and — uncertainties in the balance of risks and opportunities. Note 6 to entry: According to the subject of the project, such as where the environment comprises human beings the notion of “consumption of resources”, due to its more general meaning, can bring a relevant way to evaluate a proposal. It is possible to consider, as for the perceived advantages, the consequences from more global points of view and from various timescales, comprising: — the consequences on the environment of the subject or of the stakeholders (economic, social, ecological consequences, etc.); — the identification and the assessment of the resources at stake to cover risks and opportunities associated with choices (market scenario risks and opportunities, possibilities and constraints of the fulfilment of the requirements, project risks and opportunities, risks and opportunities of evolutions of the environment, even of the needs, etc.); — the uncertainties as to resources which may be consumed, constrained, or present, foreseen or not, balancing upside potential and risk; — uncertainties in balance of risks and opportunities. Note 7 to entry: When making an assessment of value some organizations may examine the global perspective as well as the organizational perspective. This implies that, in addition to stakeholders need and consumption of resources, positive and negative impacts beyond the interests of the stakeholders should be considered. 2.1.2 stakeholder person or organization which has an interest in and influence on a product at any time during its life cycle 2.1.3 customer person or organization who has the potential to be a user or enquirer of a product at any time during its life cycle SIST EN 1325:2014



EN 1325:2014 (E) 7 2.1.4 user person or organization for which the product is designed and which exploits at least one of its functions at any time during its life cycle Note 1 to entry: A user can be an external or internal customer. 2.1.5 product result of activities or processes, any goods, process, service, system, strategy or organization Note 1 to entry: A product can include service, hardware, processed materials, software or a combination thereof. Note 2 to entry: A product can be tangible (e.g. assemblies or processed materials) or intangible (e.g. knowledge or concepts), or a combination thereof. Note 3 to entry: A product can be either intended (e.g. offering to customers) or unintended (e.g. pollutant or unwanted effects). [SOURCE: EN ISO 9000:2005, EN ISO 14024:2000] 2.1.6 constraint characteristic result or design feature which is made compulsory or has been prohibited for any reason, with no alternative possibility being left Note 1 to entry: Constraints are generally restrictions on the choice of solutions in a value study. Note 2 to entry: The constraints can result from laws, from standards, from the demand of the market. These elements contribute to the characterisation of the functions. It is wise to record the relationship between them and the functions to which they apply (traceability). Note 3 to entry:
Given the importance which the constraints can have on the definition of the product, it is good practice to justify any specified constraint. Note 4 to entry:
To facilitate the reading of the results of the Function Analysis, constraints can be included in a particular section of the FNE. 2.1.7 cost expenditure incurred on, or attributable to, a given product Note 1 to entry: Cost is expressed in terms of money expended by one or more stakeholders. 2.1.8 need what is necessary for or desired by the user Note 1 to entry: A need can be declared or undeclared; it can be existing or potential. 2.1.9 resources everything that is required to satisfy the needs Note 1 to entry: Resources include not just cost (both long and short term) but also time, materials and other inputs, whether physical such as materials or abstract such as intellectual property, sustainability and social impact. Note 2 to entry: Resources used include initial cost plus operation costs plus other considerations such as influence on environment SIST EN 1325:2014



EN 1325:2014 (E) 8 2.1.10 life cycle
time interval from product inception until its removal from use and disposal Note 1 to entry: Life cycle encompasses evolution undergone by a product studied in the course of time, from its conceptualisation to its withdrawal. 'Withdrawal' should be understood as the final elimination of the product beyond its withdrawal from service. Note 2 to entry: Examination of life cycle may consider product usage conditions which may be encountered including scenario planning, risk assessment, transport, handling, storage, intended duration of use and other factors. 2.1.11 life situation
product usage condition (for transport, handling, storage, maintenance, various applications, etc.) with the respective occurrences and duration 2.2 General terms for value management 2.2.1 value management
VM style of management, particularly dedicated to motivating people, developing skills and promoting synergies and innovation, with the aim of maximising the overall performance of an organization Note 1 to entry: Applied at the Corporate perspective, Value Management relies on a value culture taking into account value for both stakeholders and customers. At the operational perspective (including project oriented activities), it implies in addition the use of appropriate methods and tools. Note 2 to entry: Value Management can also be considered as a framework within which methods and tools are deployed to improve performance. Terms for core tools are defined in this standard. 2.2.2 value culture attitude, awareness and sufficient knowledge of what the concept of value represents for an organization and its stakeholders and of the factors that may affect this value Note 1 to entry: It includes an appropriate knowledge of available methods and tools and an awareness of managerial and environmental conditions which enable Value Management to flourish. Note 2 to entry: It includes the examination of organizational behaviours and climate. Note 3 to entry: Value Management approaches address both Management by Value, whereby the concepts of function and value are taken fully into account in management and decision-making, and Management of Value, which is aimed at the successful completion of projects through the use of one or more value management methods.
[SOURCE: Value Management Handbook] 2.2.3 value management programme planned and structured array of activities which enables the development, implementation and maintenance of Value Management policy in a sustainable manner Note 1 to entry: VM is deployed as a framework within an organization, as specific programmes, as projects and as discrete studies within projects.

designer-producer entity responsible for the design of a product and sometimes of its providing Note 1 to entry: The designer/designer - producer is either an external organization, or a department from the same organization as the enquirer. Note 2 to entry: In certain sectors a designer is called ‘consulting engineer’ or ‘architect’. 2.2.4.4 project owner entity responsible for the definition of the need and for the specified objective, which procures the management of the project, the selection of the designer(s), pilots the action, and assures, and finances the activity 2.3 Terms related to core methods of value management Terms related to Core Methods of Value Management are defined below. Guidance on deployment and use of these methods is given in separate standards. Core methods include: — Function Analysis; — Function Cost; — Functional Performance Specification; — Value Analysis and Value Engineering; — Design to Cost and Design to Objective. 2.3.1 function analysis
FA process that describes completely the functions and their relationships, which are systematically characterised, classified and evaluated Note 1 to entry: The function structure is a part of the result of Function Analysis. Note 2 to entry: Function Analysis covers two approaches: the Functional Need Analysis (or External Function analysis) and the Technical Function Analysis (or Internal Function analysis). SIST EN 1325:2014



EN 1325:2014 (E) 10 Note 3 to entry: Function Analysis combines problem definition on the one hand (FNA/FNE), and the technical functions and the inter-relations of the components and finally the potentialities of the solution in the mind on the other hand (TFA); furthermore it provides a common understanding. 2.3.1.1 function effect of a product or of one of its constituents Note 1
