Case Study
Back to Basics
As Cost Engineers of many years experience; we can easily forget the importance of basic techniques. It is also very easy to lose sight of the fact that what we accept as second nature may not be so to less experienced members of the team.
The value of younger, or less experienced, members of a Cost Engineering team is paramount, as they will constantly remind one of the need to capture and share knowledge. I have learned that this, linked to a robust training programme, is vital to ensure the ongoing credibility of the Cost Engineering discipline. What better way to do this than the collection of data and construction of knowledge bases within the framework of a comprehensive suite of parametric tools such as the SEER suite?
