Target Value Delivery: Insights and Experience You Can Use

Boston Medical Center

As the healthcare industry faces an increasingly challenging financial environment, achieving greater cost control while ensuring the highest value has become providers’ number one concern. Healthcare facilities are high-value strategic resources: expensive to design, build and operate. Target Value Delivery (TVD) is an innovative new response to bring greater value to clients than traditional project delivery. 

Rather than designing first and then estimating costs, TVD starts with a validated cost for all project components as well as targets for other value metrics like sustainability, operational costs and staffing, speed to market, flexibility, and patient experience. It uses multiple design sets and rapid prototyping to unearth what customers both need and want, leading to better decisions. You’re invited to join top industry leaders for an in-depth exploration of the economic and practical benefits of using TVD for complex healthcare projects. As a participant, you will have the opportunity to network with peers, review key tools and techniques, and discuss new solutions across all scales that better align project deliverables with customer-defined value.

This invitation-only session will include high-level strategic conversations featuring a small yet diverse group of participants from across industries. As a participant, you will have the opportunity to network with your peers and generate new ideas in healthcare environments.
