  1. IENG 217Cost Estimating for Engineers Estimating

  2. Nature of the estimate • Timeliness • Purpose • Accuracy • Effort • Accountability

  3. Universal Methods • Opinion • Guesstimating, TLAR • Conference • Delphi, Sales Force Composite, Exec. Dec. • Comparison • Cc(Dc) < Ca(Da) < Cb(Db) • Unit

  4. Comparison

  5. Unit

  6. Unit • Metal machining cost may be related to length of the bar stock that is turned on a lathe. Actual tickets yield

  7. Unit • Metal machining cost may be related to length of the bar stock that is turned on a lathe. Actual tickets yield Ca = 110/9 = $12.22 / in.

  8. Unit Cost • Fails to apply principle of economy of scale • Accounts for slope only • Regression: Ca = -23.3 + 20(length)

  9. Operational Methods • Cost estimating relationships • Time estimating relationships • Performance time data

  10. Cost Estimating Relationships • Parameters Ca = -23.3 + 20(length) bar stock length ( 5 inches ) used in CER ( $76.70 ) is often called a parameter – it is not CER is actually a parametric equation

  11. Cost Estimating Relationship

  12. Cost Estimating Relationship • Typical arc welder draws 200 amps for a 20 volt arc welding process. If we have a 10 in/min welding travel speed and a 95% machine efficiency, estimate the cost per foot of a weld if the utility costs are $0.08 per KWhr.

  13. Cost Estimating Relationship • WWII military aircraft constructed of aluminum (regression; 10 contractors)

  14. Performance Time Data • Time Study • Work Sampling

  15. Performance Time Data Alg. • Collected several measurements from ops. • Classify elements into common group • Regress element time against one or more independent causal variables • Determine if TER is constant or variable • If TER is constant, determine value • If TER is variable, convert to time table or eq. • Collect all constant variable elements for operation • If accuracy is acceptable, use information for estimating designs

  16. Constant or Variable ? • 5 time measurements taken on a manual handling task Weight, lb. 1 3 4 5 7 Time, min. .15 .20 .30 .40 .50 Regression yields

  17. Constant or Variable ? • Test 1 • Test 2

  18. Constant or Variable ? • 5 time measurements taken on a manual handling task (test 1, P1 = 100%) Weight, lb. 1 3 4 5 7 Time, min. .15 .20 .30 .40 .50 yhat .1225 .4975
