What you will be able to do

Reconcile a bounded takeoff and track the effect of a model revision on a cost plan.

Explore the course curriculum

Open each section to explore the planned learning activities.

Define the measurement
  • State included elements, units and deduction rules
  • Separate modeled, inferred and manually measured quantities
Build a reliable takeoff
  • Map classifications and avoid duplicate linked elements
  • Reconcile sample quantities with an independent calculation
Connect quantities to cost
  • Attach dated training rates and document inclusions
  • Separate base cost, allowances and uncertainty
Control revisions
  • Identify added, removed and changed scope by stable IDs
  • Explain quantity and rate effects separately in a change report
