Technology organizations spend millions of dollars each year developing and delivering software. Whether the programs are in-house or vendor related, successful planning of these programs depends heavily on reliable estimates. Being able to generate these estimates early before detailed planning takes place is essential and can have a major impact on annual budgeting, resource allocation and cost and schedule overruns. In this PDU-approved webinar, presented on May 21 at 1:00 PM EDT, Keith Ciocco will summarize best practices for top-down estimation and how to leverage estimation tools.
