STUDI VALUE ENGINEERING PADA PROYEK PEMBANGUNAN PUSAT LABORATORIUM FORENSIK KOTA JAYAPURA

Currently, Indonesia is intensively carrying out infrastructure development to make it look like a developed country. But the infrastructure development requires a very large cost. Construction project development activities have a very important element, namely costs to support the project's continuity. In this connection, we need an alternative to reduce costs called value engineering. Value engineering will be carried out in the Jayapura City Forensic Laboratory Development Project which consists of 2 floors with an area of 2488 m2 which costs Rp. 20,360,981,171.25. This study aims to determine which work items can be performed value engineering, to determine life cycle costs and cost savings. The data used are the Budget Plan (RAB), Work Plan and Conditions (RKS), Detailed Engineering Design (DED). This value engineering study is carried out in five stages, namely the information stage, the creative stage, the analysis stage, the development stage and the recommendation stage. The method used in this study to determine the work items using the Pareto diagram and the selection of the selected alternatives using the zero-one method. From the study results, it is found that seven items of work that need to be saved include wall mating work, floor tile work (main), plastering work, finishing coat work, ceramic plinth work, wall ceramic work, and floor tile work (toilet). The cost savings obtained were Rp. 433,960,959.05 or 2.13% of the initial cost and a life cycle fee of Rp. 507,355,517.72 or 12.44%.
