Description

The estimating techniques covered in this course will provide delegates with the necessary skills to forecast accurately the anticipated costs of projects with a focus on estimates for pre-construction services, estimating sub-contractor work, estimating general conditions, pricing self-performed work, and estimating negotiated contracts.

The development of reliable cost estimates during the design and early conceptual stages of a proposed project is of critical importance since the decision to proceed with a project is often based almost exclusively on early conceptual cost estimates. These estimates also provide the basis for the cash flow projections and forecasts used during the project feasibility study.
