(d) After review and for compelling reasons, the secretary may waive the requirement under par. (b) for any project. Any such waiver shall be in writing, state the reasons for the waiver, and apply only to a single project.
(e) For each project for which the department performs a value engineering study and analysis under this subsection, the department shall include in the study and analysis an identification of the cost of all design elements for the project that are considered by the department to be context-sensitive design elements and the department's justification for any increased project costs resulting from these design elements.
(f) Annually, the department shall submit a report to the governor, and to the appropriate standing committees of the legislature under s. 13.172 (3), on the department's employment of value engineering under par. (b), the criteria established by the department under par. (c), and all waivers made under par. (d). All project information included in any report required under this paragraph shall be reported on both a cumulative basis from the inception of the project and on an updated basis for the period since the department's last report under this paragraph. The report under this paragraph shall also include all of the following information:
1. The number of value engineering studies conducted.
2. The cost of conducting the studies.
3. The estimated construction cost of the projects studied.
4. The total number of study recommendations.
5. The total estimated savings that would result from all recommendations if approved and implemented.
