Tahap perencanaan atau disain pada proyek bangunan gedung sering kali tidak berjalan optimal yang berdampak pada banyaknya pemborosan dan biaya tidak perlu pada tahap pelaksanaan konstruksi bangunan gedung sehingga upaya penerapan VE bisa menjadi solusi untuk mengoptimalkan nilai manfaat (worth) sekaligus mengurangi biaya-biaya yang tidak perlu pada sebuah proyek bangunan gedung. Disamping itu fenomena keuntungan kontraktor bangunan gedung di Indonesia yang sangat minim menjadi ancaman bagi keberlangsungan bisnis kontraktor bangunan gedung di Indonesia. Disinilah peran VE diharapkan bisa memberi kontribusi bagi peningkatan kinerja biaya proyek- proyek bangunan gedung di Indonesia khususnya PT X sebagai Badan Usaha Milik Negara. Penerapan VE pada tahap pelaksanaan konstruksi bangunan gedung di PT X yang belum optimal tidak akan memberikan manfaat yang signifikan bagi kinerja proyek konstruksi bangunan gedung. Penelitian dimaksudkan untuk menyediakan saran bagi pengoptimalan penerapan VE pada tahap pelaksanaan. Penelitian dilaksanakan melalui survey kuesioner. Hasil penelitian mengidentifikasi bahwa penerapan VE belum optimal. VE belum dipahami dengan benar, dan belum diterapkan belum sesuai standar internasional. Kualitas Tim VE, Manajemen pada fase Job Plan, dukungan top manajemen perusahaan dan dukungan dari eksternal menjadi faktor penentu keberhasilan penerapan VE di PT X.

Abstract
Stage in project planning or design of buildings often do not run optimally impacting on the amount of waste and unnecessary costs on the stage of the construction of buildings so that the application of VE effort could be a solution to optimize the value of the benefit (worth) while reducing the costs of unnecessary on a building project. Besides, the phenomenon of profit building contractor building in Indonesia is very minimal threat to the sustainability of the building contracting business in Indonesia. This is where the role of VE is expected to contribute to improving the cost performance of building projects in Indonesia, especially PT X as a State Owned Enterprise. Application of VE at the stage of the construction of buildings in PT X is not optimal will not provide significant benefits for the performance of building construction projects. The research is intended to provide suggestions for optimizing the application of VE in the implementation stage. The experiment was conducted through a survey questionnaire. The results identified that the application of VE is not optimal. VE has not been understood properly, and has not been implemented yet according to international standards. Quality of the VE Team, Management Job Plan phase, top management support and support from external companies became the criticcal factor in the successful application of VE PT X.
