Dr. Dean Kashiwagi will explain how the approach evolved from Best Value Procurement into the Best Value Approach. To succeed in the current market as a strategic buyer, Dr. Dean Kashiwagi and THOP are convinced that costs are reduced by identifying and utilizing expertise while maximizing purchasing efficiency.
The ‘Best Value Approach’ is in the current landscape, a matter of shifting from price to Total Cost of Ownership to eventually focus on value as a central concept. BVA is a vendor centric model which puts the expert vendor at the center and focusses on identifying and utilizing expertise. By doing so maximizing value and lowering costs up to 30%. BVA is a method to improve efficiency in procurement, risk- and project or contract management. The new method contrasts sharply with the traditional way of procurement, project management and contracting, which is characterized by control.
