Toolbox of flexible and easy-to-use estimating functions:- Input of the proposed contract work breakdown structure plus options for a product work breakdown structure that reflects how the contract will be executed by the shipyard
- Input of specific cost estimate items (labor, material, subcontract and travel expenses)
- Automated generation of cost estimate items from libraries of shipyard-specific production rates and unit costs
- Automated generation of cost estimate items from libraries of standardized work packages, each detailed for typical labor and material requirements
- Automated generation of cost estimate items copied from other contracts available on the database
- Automated calculations of labor and indirect costs, including overhead, G&A and profit from user-defined rate tables
- Automated calculations of sales taxes against selected purchased goods and services
- Automated application of multi-year rate tables to accommodate rate changes on long-term contracts
- Global modifications to selected ranges of cost estimate data
- Cost risk and ship weight reporting
- Estimate reports detailing or summarizing costs by contract work breakdown structure and ship products or production stage as well as by separate work centers, including subcontractors
The system allows a contract to incorporate multiple projects as required for series ship construction and repair programs. If necessary, non-recurring costs, such as design and engineering, can be identified as a separate project under the contract. Click here to return to the ESTI-MATE Module.
