Build TVD Confidence Before Your Next Project Begins

By the time a project team realizes the design is outpacing the budget, many of the most important decisions have already been made.

The owner’s priorities have been discussed, scope has been shaped, and design direction has gained momentum. Key partners may have weighed in, but often after the work has already moved too far downstream.

That’s why budget overruns are rarely just budget problems. They’re timing problems, alignment problems, and decision-making problems.

Target Value Delivery gives teams a different way to work. Instead of waiting until later in design to reconcile cost and scope, TVD brings value, cost, and team input into the conversation earlier, when decisions are still flexible and the project has more room to respond.

But applying TVD well takes more than understanding the concept.

That’s where Target Value Delivery in Action comes in.

This six-session live virtual workshop is designed to help AEC professionals build the shared language, framework, and hands-on practice to apply TVD before their next project begins.

Move From Understanding TVD to Practicing It

Most teams already understand that Target Value Delivery is more than a cost-control tactic. It represents a different way of working, where cost becomes a design input and the full team works together to shape decisions before design runs ahead of budget.

What’s harder to come by is the shared language, framework, and practice needed to use TVD effectively on a real project.

This virtual workshop is designed to help participants move from theory to application. Participants will work through the TVD process inside a live virtual environment alongside a consistent cohort of peers from across the AEC industry.

That structure matters. Instead of starting over with a new group each week, participants stay with the same cohort throughout the full course arc. This allows the group to build trust, deepen discussion, and continue applying what they learned in previous sessions.

What Participants Will Work Through

The workshop follows a practical progression that mirrors the way teams need to think through TVD on a real project.

The course arc:

Business Case
Learn what a strong business case includes, why it anchors the project, and how it helps establish a realistic target cost from the start.
Conditions of Satisfaction
Practice defining what success means with the owner, then using those conditions as a decision lens throughout the project.
Partner Onboarding
Explore how and when to bring key partners into the process so their input shapes the design, rather than simply reacting to it after decisions have already been made.
Project Charter
Work toward a project charter that helps align the team around purpose, value, expectations, and next steps.
Validation Readiness
Leave with a clearer understanding of what it takes to move into validation with stronger team alignment and a more practical TVD framework.

Why the Virtual Format Matters

Target Value Delivery isn’t just a process shift; it’s a team practice.

That’s why this workshop is built around live learning, peer discussion, breakout work, and a consistent cohort from start to finish. Participants are not simply listening to a presentation about TVD. They are actively working through the conversations, decisions, and collaboration patterns that make TVD function.

Past attendees have pointed to the same elements again and again as especially valuable: learning from people with more TVD experience, seeing examples from different companies and project types, and staying with the same breakout group throughout the workshop.

That combination gives participants exposure to real perspectives while also creating space to practice the shared language and team behaviors TVD requires.

What You’ll Walk Away With

By the end of the workshop, participants will be able to:

Explain what makes TVD fundamentally different from traditional delivery
Understand where the project delivery sequence needs to change
Build and evaluate a business case
Define Conditions of Satisfaction with the owner
Bring key partners in at the right moment
Practice collaborative delivery in a live team environment
Leave with a project charter ready for the validation phase

This is not just a course about what TVD is. It’s a structured learning experience designed to help teams apply TVD before their next project begins.

Whether you’re new to TVD or looking to strengthen your Lean practice, this workshop gives you the fundamentals, framework, and hands-on experience to approach project delivery differently.
