Costworks - How We Use It

• CostWorks is used to develop construction cost
  estimates that include both deferred and
  non-deferred components that fall within the
  scope of the project.
• Accurate Condition Assessment Survey (CAS) data
  enhances ability to plan executable deferred
  maintenance (DM) projects.
• Currently use CostWorks to build customized
  sustainment models (still in the implementation
  stage).

Develop Scope of Work
This scope of work is 1 of 5 provided by the
customer (Utilities System Mgr.)

In this case, our customer provided us with a
drawing. CostWorks estimator (CAS Group) then
identifies specific areas of interest within the
project.

Estimator tab
You choose the location to store your project
estimates

Nothing shows on this list until you add an
Assembly item. You can also add to your CostList
from the Unit Cost tab as well
9
Assembly and Unit costs can be used for
estimating your projects. The note field is an
excellent area to provide task specific info.
