Question

you create a new type of electric shaver that is lightweight, portable, and holds a longer charge. you want to use value engineering to improve the shaver. which action is an example of value engineering? putting a smaller motor inside the shaver to make the shaver run faster. putting a faster motor inside the shaver to increase the quality of a shave. moving manufacturing to a third - party plant. using cheaper materials for the cover without affecting overall quality.

Explanation:

Value engineering aims to increase the value of a product by either reducing costs without sacrificing quality or improving functionality without increasing cost. Using cheaper materials for the cover without affecting overall quality reduces cost while maintaining the same level of quality, which is in line with value - engineering principles.

Answer:

Using cheaper materials for the cover without affecting overall quality.
