Value-creating factors in the organization and consequently the applying of value engineering are among the basic factors of quality services and one of the useful ways for managers to use value engineering is to identify the success factors of implementing value engineering in organizations. The purpose of this study was to formulate a model of factors affecting the establishment of value engineering in sports. The research method was a descriptive survey. The statistical population included managers of Municipality sports, civil engineering and urban planning and sports complexes, as well as experts in sports, civil engineering, and urban planning and contractors of sports complexes of Tehran Municipality, numbering 600 subjects. By Simple random sampling method the sample was determined according to Krejcie-Morgan table (N=234). The research instrument was a researcher-made value engineering questionnaire that was used after confirming the face validity, content (9 expert opinions) and structure (confirmatory factor analysis), and reliability (Cronbach's alpha). SPSS 22.0 and Smart PLS 3 software was used to analyze the data in the descriptive and inferential sections. The results of exploratory factor analysis showed 6 factors (following planning, information quality, strategy formulation, area selection, support of senior managers, characteristics of the value engineering team) with an explanation of 76.942% of variance and Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) index of 0.943%. The following planning factor had the greatest effect. The results of confirmatory factor analysis indicated an acceptable fit of the data. Content validity, divergent and convergent, also indicated good scale validity. Value engineering due to its nature can be used as a powerful tool for problem-solving and decision-making in sports organizations.
