We are:
Accenture’s Sourcing & Procurement practice is growing, and we’re expanding our Direct Materials Center of Excellence with a talented, forward-thinking Design to Value (DtV) Consultant.  Our clients face complex challenges that require holistic solutions — blending functional expertise, data-driven insights, digital innovation, and deep industry knowledge. Our mission: help clients unlock significant value by optimizing product design, engineering, and cost structures, driving strategic improvements in product development and lifecycle management through Design to Value.
You are:
As a Design to Value Consultant, you will support cross‑functional teams in identifying, analyzing, and executing product and cost optimization opportunities. You’ll contribute to DtV workshops, product teardowns, cost modeling efforts, and detailed analyses that uncover actionable insights. Working closely with client stakeholders, engineers, sourcing teams, and designers, you’ll help shape recommendations that improve product value, quality, and profitability.
You will collaborate with teams across industries to develop DtV strategies, evaluate product architectures, build should‑cost models, and support value engineering initiatives. You will also contribute to project deliverables, internal knowledge development, and lab‑based analysis activities.
The work:
Conduct product, cost, and design analyses to identify value improvement opportunities using DtV and value engineering methodologies.
Support the execution of DtV workshops, including preparing materials, analyzing inputs, and synthesizing insights into clear recommendations.
Perform should‑cost modeling, cost breakdowns, and benchmarking to evaluate product cost drivers and alternative design options.
Participate in product teardowns and lab‑based assessments to analyze components, materials, and manufacturing approaches.
Support cross‑functional teams—engineering, procurement, operations—in evaluating product redesign and optimization concepts.
Develop clear, data‑backed presentations and deliverables that communicate findings and recommendations to stakeholders.
Collaborate with project leads to manage workstreams, track progress, and ensure high‑quality outputs.
Contribute to internal capability building through knowledge documentation, tool development, and best‑practice sharing within the DtV team.
Mentor junior team members, share best practices, and contribute to internal capability building.
