The Cone is a project management framework describing the uncertainty aspects of estimates (cost and schedule) and other project attributes (cost, schedule, and technical performance parameters). the beginning of a project, comparatively little is known about the product or work results, and so estimates are subject to large uncertainty.

The Cone is a project management framework describing the uncertainty aspects of estimates (cost and schedule) and other project attributes (cost, schedule, and technical performance parameters). Estimates are needed but are subject to large level of uncertainty. The BLUE bars are the probabilistic ranges of the current estimate date.

Here's another trail being ridden by our son at Nationals in 2013. The notion of Control is missed used in software development projects. They have to be estimated in the start. A quick estimate is needed to decide what to do. Estimating on projects is part of the close loop control system. Good question.

All making things smaller dos is show that you're late, over budget, and what you're building (Technical Performance Measures) doesn't work faster. So here are some books, handbooks, and guides that sit on my shelf that are used pretty much all the time on the Software Intensive System of Systems we work on. No References?

Estimation is part of project management. . The most important estimates for the project manager are related to time and cost. . Since it is easier to estimate small tasks, these estimates are often calculated and performed as point estimates, for example, a task will take 3 days. RiskAmp is one I like.
