Abstract In construction projects, value engineering (VE) is widely applied to reduce budgets and enhance performance. Conducted during the design stage, VE follows a structured job plan to achieve the best value at the optimal cost. The quality model plays a critical role in determining the evaluation scale during the preparation stage. However, in current design VE practice, building a quality model is not carried out systematically. Evaluation items are often selected based on expert-driven experience, which can lead to differences between VE results and the actual needs of building occupants and users. This study aims to develop a methodology for creating a post-occupancy evaluation (POE)-based, user-oriented VE quality model. The proposed approach is expected to support the reliable identification of quality requirements in the VE process and improve work efficiency.
