COSTMOD Cost Model Development Process • Process • Scoping • define processes & products that need models • define the characteristics of these cost models Data Collection & Model Identification Develop the Cost Estimating Relationships Selection of data sources and data collection methods
Project Scoping 3 of 6 Business Objective and Decision Levels applicable to the cost model
Project Scoping 5 of 6 Enter required Estimating Accuracy <5%, 5%-10%, 10%-15% ….. >25%
Exercise: Develop a cost model • Form groups of 3-4 • Use the Costmod process to develop a suitable model for estimating the time required to sharpen a pencil within a medium volume production environment
