The report addresses the following key areas: (a) The costs associated with the development of CADD products. (b) How CADD costs are typically addressed in an A-E contract. (c) Current practices for estimating the costs associated with the development of CADD products. (d) The validity of using 'old rules of thumb' for estimating A-E CADD design costs. (e) The process of verifying A-E CADD cost estimates. (f) A consistent approach to making cost estimates and suggested ways to improve procedures and reduce A-E CADD costs will be proposed.
