Cost Database Management

IPA's wealth of experience has shown us how difficult it is for companies to consistently manage the project cost databases that are so vital to improving company cost effectiveness. IPA can help your company manage its cost database to fully support internal cost engineering practices and improve your company's ability to benchmark. IPA offers a database management package that is structured to be compatible with industry cost engineering practice and to integrate with our PES project evaluation services.

HOW WILL YOUR COMPANY BENEFIT?

As part of IPA's database management package, IPA will:

  • Provide a comprehensive assessment of your cost database needs
  • Advise your cost engineering personnel and project teams about cost collection and data management issues
  • Maintain your data in our secured database under conditions of complete client confidentiality
  • Produce an annual comprehensive cost metric report for your company. Metrics can be reported by groups with your company
  • Provide electronic database files suitable for your own cost estimating and analysis use

COST DATABASE MANAGEMENT DELIVERABLES

Your annual comprehensive cost metrics report provides relevant database information and calculated cost metrics for each project in your database. The report also provides summary cost metric tabulations and corresponding graphical presentations. Raw and normalized data are also provided in an electronic format suitable for you own analysis proposes.
