What is safety value engineering?
The value engineering method is an important tool for economic analysis and decision-making, and Safety Value Engineering (SVE) is a practical technique for integrating safety considerations with economic factors
Safety Value Engineering (SVE) is a practical safety technical-economic method. The application of the theories and methods of value engineering in safety economic analysis and decision-making will be of great significance and importance in improving the effectiveness and quality of safety economic activities. This chapter tentatively analyzes and explores the concepts, tasks, methods, scope of application, as well as the organization of safety functions in safety value engineering, aiming to provide theories and methods for this field that can help determine reasonable directions and scales for safety investments in specific research contexts.
Safety value engineering is a safety-related technical and economic method that applies the theories and methods of value engineering, relies on collective wisdom and organized activities, and through the analysis of the safety functions of a particular measure, seeks to achieve the necessary safety functions at the lowest possible investment in the safety lifecycle, thereby enhancing safety value.
