B)Building efficiencies into value-added costs
C)Reducing the number of features offered
D)Redesigning alternative options over and over until the wishes of all cross-functional team members are accommodated

Redesigning alternative options over and over until the wishes of all cross-functional team members are accommodated is not a value engineering method of reducing costs. It is more of a team management approach rather than a cost-cutting measure. The other options (simplifying the design, building efficiencies into value-added costs, and reducing the number of features offered) are all legitimate methods of reducing costs through value engineering.
