The reality of finishes and FF&E value engineering
Finishes VE is rarely a full-market exercise – it is constrained by bias, time, and limited visibility.
Biased VE options don’t prioritise project needs
Most alternatives come through subcontractors or agents, where commercial relationships influence recommendations. Options are not always what’s best for the project or client.
In depth VE takes time most teams don’t have
Reviewing a finishes or FF&E package properly is time-heavy. Under pressure, teams default to familiar suppliers and quick substitutions instead of exploring better alternatives.
Most of the market never gets considered
The finishes market is much broader than believed, but only a small subset is typically reviewed. Many strong, compliant options simply never surface during the VE process.
