Mission Statement
Design Philosophy
One of the attributes that IGB Engineering Consultancy brings to a project is to conduct an option analysis for each of the systems to be included in the project. An option analysis is the technique of looking at alternative systems and providing an analysis of the merits of each system to determine the preferred solution.
Generally, a life cycle costing analysis is carried out on the preferred options to reach a conclusion on the ultimate system to be designed and installed.
A key step in the initial concept design phase is to conduct a value management study. The objectives of this study are as follows:
- Identify any opportunities for capital cost savings as well as options to reduce on-going operating costs without compromising the project fundamentals.
- Identify outstanding issues which may impact on the project and address these within the workshop format.
- Agree action plans to ensure the project can be progressed in a timely manner.
The participatory nature of value management study helps to develop an enthusiastic and cohesive team by providing a forum in which participants can express opinions and concerns freely.
When adopted early in the design process the approach is preventive rather than curative, as it allows for the identification of problem areas and resolution at a very early stage of the project.
In summary the processes undertaken are as follows:
- A project briefing session should be conducted giving project background, evolution and current
status. - Project objectives to be identified and agreed.
- “Brainstorming“ session to be conducted
- Opportunities to enhance the design to be examined in sub-groups under the categories of
Architectural, Structural, Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, Fire Protection and Detection.
