Pathways to Value-Promoting Value Analysis in Western Canada

On November 10, 2016, Value Analysis Canada – Western Group hosted its regular monthly dinner presentation featuring a talk by Mushtaq Rabbi, one of the most vocal proponents of value management methodology in Western Canada. Currently serving as a Project Management Consultant with the Corporate Project and Asset Management Team, Rabbi has been working at the City of Calgary for over 11 years.

In his presentation entitled “Implementing Value Management at the City of Calgary”, Rabbi looked at the application of value methodology for the City’s capital infrastructure programs and projects. More importantly, he discussed the implementation of the Value Management (VM) Guidance at the City of Calgary. In addition to that, Rabbi went over success stories and lessons learned followed by a Q&A session.
 
The event took place at the Fantasyland Hotel at West Edmonton Mall in Edmonton. More than 25 attendees from provincial and municipal governments, as well as professionals and students, came out to the event.
