Every company lives or dies on the basis of estimating its costs. This book provides a solid foundation for any project manager, cost estimator, or organization in need of improving their cost estimating success. The author explains how to develop cost rates and how they can be used not only to estimate the project's cost, but also how to use them to determine a competitor's likely bid price. He explores the estimating methods typically used to estimate costs and explains the advantages and disadvantages of each, demonstrates several software-estimating methods, and includes a cost estimating methodology that readers can tailor to their own organizational needs.
