Чему вы научитесь
- Explain why estimate accuracy improves through the project lifecycle and match estimate classes to their typical accuracy ranges
- Select an appropriate estimating approach — analogous, parametric or bottom-up — for the information available
- Distinguish contingency reserve from management reserve and apply each correctly
- Describe how estimates, contingency and reserves combine into a cost baseline and project budget
- Interpret PV, EV and AC, and read CPI and SPI to judge cost and schedule health
- Forecast cost at completion and report cost status honestly, including bad news, early
