place.
• The material requisition form is attached to the production
order form, and along with the finished production, they

during “commercialization”
• By geography
• By market size
• By customer type
(business/consumer/government)
• By channel of distribution (Rx/OTC)
• By use (special occasion/every day)
• By benefit sought

While Value Engineering focuses on
preproduction design improvement, Value
Analysis takes place during the production
process.
Value Analysis seeks improvements leading
either to a better product or a product which
can be produced more economically.
