Project Estimation

Accurately planning and estimating software projects is an extremely difficult software management function. Few organizations have established formal estimation processes, despite evidence that suggests organizations without formal estimation are four times more likely to experience cancelled or delayed projects. In addition to producing SPR KnowledgePLAN®, the leading estimation software solution, our Project Estimation Practice covers a range of services including: validating existing plans, implementing automated software estimation tools, implementing function point sizing techniques, linking project estimation to project management initiatives, and collecting historical project data to improve future estimation efforts.
