============================================================== Synopsis:
We Need It Before The End Of The Year:
What’s Your Estimate?
No matter what your position on a project you must be a good estimator of your work, and it is a cardinal sin to let good estimates by smart people get overwhelmed by the strong desires of powerful people. Accurate estimates are the foundation of all critical project decisions regarding staffing, functionality, delivery date, and budget. How do we accurately estimate in a world where tradition declares that the deadline is set before the requirements are even known?
Tim will offer practical advice on dealing with this thorny issue. He will present strategies and tactics for project estimating and will describe his favorite estimating metric, the Estimating Quality Factor (EQF). By thinking that goals are important and so are good estimates, you will be on the road to better quality and better projects.
Tim is currently a member of the Cutter IT Trends Council. He is a member of the I.E.E.E. and the A.C.M. He is in his 28th year as a panelist for the American Arbitration Association, arbitrating disputes involving software and software services.
