| Abstract | ||
| Traditional VE frameworks often fail to address specific challenges unique to banking facilities, such as stringent security requirements, regulatory compliance, and advanced technological demands. This study explores the application of a revised six-stage value engineering (VE) job plan tailored for construction projects in the banking sector. The revised plan integrates critical factors, including enhanced security measures, economic feasibility, sustainability, safety standards, and long-term maintenance needs. A case study of a new branch for the Egyptian Export Development Bank construction demonstrates the effectiveness of this approach, highlighting innovations like reinforced security systems, sustainable energy solutions, and advanced compliance protocols. The findings illustrate how aligning VE methodologies with banking sector standards can optimize cost efficiency, enhance functionality, and foster sustainable development, offering a robust framework adaptable to similar high-security, technology-driven environments. | ||
