From Product Description to Cost: A Practical Approach: Volume 2: Building a Specific Model (Decision Engineering)

Pierre Marie Maurice Foussier

4.9/5 (19985 ratings)

Description:Parametric cost estimating, when properly used, is a very powerful and cost effective technique. Unfortunately, this technique is often misunderstood and rejected by many potential users for whom it could be a beneficial tool. The development of an agreement on how to use it and how to recognise its limitations is a major benefit to the cost estimating community.From Product Description to Cost: A Practical Approach: presents different ways of parametrically forecasting costs, and the advantages and disadvantages of these methods by using real examples from the mechanical, software and building industries; discusses most of the mathematical procedures which are useful for parametrically forecasting costs; introduces the judgement needed to audit the ways in which these forecasting techniques are used, firstly as a process, and secondly as a tool to generate estimates. Volume 2: Building a Specific Model is divided into nine parts and focuses on the building of specific cost estimating models. These models explicitly refer to a product family, and, as opposed to general models, any company (if properly organised) can build these models. Understanding the procedures is key in creating successful specific models; for this reason all these procedures are fully described in this volume. Classical methods and new ones (such as the "bootstrap") are described and illustrated.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
