The importance of good
estimating for your organisation cannot be
under-estimated.
For government bodies, good estimating ensures
you will avoid budget blowouts. For private
companies, good estimating enhances your profitability
and allows you to tweak estimates to maximise your
competiveness. For both groups, good estimating is
undoubtedly the foundation of running timely projects as field
staff will have access to an accurate breakdown of the work,
and accurate information will be provided to your
financial and other business systems for improved
information flow.
There are many pitfalls to avoid that arise from poor estimating
practices. Poorly constructed estimates make it
virtually impossible for field staff to control costs.
Poorly constructed estimates make it very hard to run
and manage a project. Poorly constructed estimates
can be impossible to pass through the organisation.
And poorly constructed estimates can be a impossible to
check and understand. Overall, poorly constructed
estimates impact on your efficiency and your bottom
line.
Benchmark's Fundamentals of Estimating Workshop will
give every attendee the fundamental knowledge that is so
important for producing consistent, accurate estimates.
