Cost & Value Engineering
Cost & Value Engineering
Providing detailed analysis to identify the optimal approach to source, manufacture and design in innovation and sustainability while reducing cost.
Vendigital as part of the Siemens Advanta organization, drives accelerated cost and value engineering transformation through data.
Cost & value engineering provides another lens, beyond traditional procurement levers, through which to tackle cost challenges. Using a bottom-up approach, we support the process of aligning costs to strategy as well as optimizing the costs of current products and helping to shape future products – ensuring the benefits are maximized across the entire product lifecycle.
-
Value Analysis Value Engineering (VAVE) – assigns a cost to the value or function of a product. By optimizing the relationship between the two, we ensure that products are not over-engineered or under-designed but instead are engineered for the task while keeping costs down.
-
Should cost modelling – we take a bottom-up approach to produce accurate granular level cost calculation for a product or service. These cost models help future procurement cost negotiations, allowing our clients to conduct fact-based negotiations with suppliers.
-
Make versus buy – we help clients understand the true cost of making something in-house versus buying from a supplier. This enables them to make data-backed decisions that support better profitability, stronger business resilience and greater competitive advantage.
-
Design to cost – we support clients to design products with the total cost of design and manufacture in mind. This gives our clients the understanding they need to design a product that is not only fit for purpose but one that can be produced at volume for a profit.
-
Lifecycle costing – accurately profiling the costs of a product over its entire life, from its inception to its decline and end-of-life costs, to understand the total costs involved and successfully forecast and plan for the future.
-
Carbon footprint calculation – we take an in-depth look at the carbon profile of products and their parts to identify those with the highest emissions, before modelling different scenarios and recommending specific actions to help reduce the overall emissions.
- Battery manufacturing assessment – our battery manufacturing assessment helps clients get more transparency around the commercial impact and investment decisions they need to make to ramp up production in battery manufacturing and provides key insights for manufacturing scalability – shaping the art of the possible for tomorrow’s gigafactories.
-
Engineering the product to the right level – we advise on what our clients’ target cost should be for a particular product, component, or the business as a whole. This ensures that a product or component is not over-engineered, therefore reducing spend.
- Enhanced supply chain relationships – we help clients forge better relationships with their suppliers by getting all parties to deal in facts, ensuring transparency and therefore helping reduce cost by getting the right quality of the right part from the right supplier.
- Lower cost and emissions through design - having an accurate data-led cost or carbon calculation allows our clients to make design decisions based on a product’s overall lifetime costs or carbon profile before it enters production.

Circularity Program Setup
Circularity Program Setup
Difficulties in sourcing strategic materials, supply chain disruptions, increasing CO2 emissions, and new regulatory requirements are accelerating the adoption of the circular economy. However, the circularity ecosystem (e.g., regulations, standards, collaborative initiatives) can be overwhelming and a real challenge for industrial players. Siemens Advanta supports businesses in creating a common circularity view, identifying key impact categories, building integrated ecosystems along value chains, and navigating the road to circularity.
- Define a strategy to anchor circularity in companies' daily business, e.g., by designing more reusable/recyclable products
- Increase supply chain resilience, e.g., by securing access to strategic materials
- Gain transparency on upcoming regulations and prepare for them, e.g., the Circular Economy Action Plan of the EU
- Leverage ecosystems along the value chain and enable data sharing to truly close the material loop, e.g., via digital product passports
- Develop new business models by closing the loop, e.g., with as-a-service business models

At Siemens Advanta, we address your future workforce challenges with our systematic workforce transformation approach, #NextWork®.
Digital transformation and structural change yield immense challenges for an organization's workforce. New competencies and skills need to be developed to adapt to digital processes and tools, revolutionizing traditional job roles. This creates a huge need for upskilling and reskilling measures in order to close the gap between the workforce of today and the workforce of the future. However, executives often lack transparency on future requirements and therefore cannot derive concrete implications for their organizations.
- Define the impact that digitalization and automation will have on the client's workforce
- Identify the jobs and skills needed for the client's business in the future
- Establish concrete development paths to transform the client's workforce systematically
- Upskilling and reskilling measures
