| description | Value Management (VM) is a methodology that has been adopted to facilitate decision-making on construction projects to deliver ‘value for money’ for clients[1]. It provides various approach to meet project needs and functions as required by the clients. This paper aims to investigate the needs of VM practice in the Malaysian construction industry. This paper employs quantitative approach by distributing total 313 numbers of questionnaire to various construction firms. It is indicated that VM is a worthwhile practice to enhance value and achieve cost savings for construction project.
