NQF 5 SD 114059: Demonstrate an Understanding of estimating a Unit of work and the implications of late delivery
Demonstrate an understanding of estimating a unit of work and the implications of late delivery
Table of contents
|
Specific Outcome 1 : Demonstrate the ability to interpret given cost/benefit analysis documentation. |
|
· 1. The demonstration identifies different parts of a cost/benefit analysis. · 2. The demonstration explains the purpose of the different parts of a cost/benefit analysis. |
|
Specific Outcome 2 : Prepare a time estimate for an element of work. |
|
· 1. The time estimate is based on a breakdown of the component in the logical parts for estimating. · 2. The time estimate is based on an understanding that the estimate should include the implementation/testing of interfaces to other components where applicable. |
|
Specific Outcome 3 : Prepare a cost estimate for an element of work. |
|
· 1. The cost estimate is based on a breakdown of the component in the logical parts for estimating. · 2. The cost estimate is based on an understanding that the estimate should include the implementation/testing of interfaces to other components where applicable. · 3. The cost estimate demonstrates an understanding that being assisted by other resources or people could escalate the costs |
|
· Specific Outcome 4 : Prepare a cost estimate for an element of work |
|
· 1. The demonstration confirms the understanding that an element delivered is often a subset of a bigger deliverable. · 2. The demonstration explains the affect of late delivery on other related components. |
