The SENSE methodology views every project and design from a Value Management perspective. We improve value by relating design elements to their corresponding cost and benefits. Our approach helps your business derive maximum performance and value:

• by finding out what the user really wants the system to do
• by giving the user more of what s/he wants and less of what s/he doesn't want
• by making, modifying or buying systems to satisfy the user's wants relative to the importance s/he gives to them

Use value relates to the attributes of the product/service/information which enable it to fulfil the user's need.

Cost value is the total cost of producing the system or addressing the need.

Esteem value is the additional value generated by an application because of its intrinsic attractiveness to customers/users. This relates to brand value.

Exchange value is the sum of the attributes which enable the application to be used by target groups and business requirements to be fulfilled by the organisation.
