As a consultant in the QinetiQ Advisory Services (QAS) business I have had the opportunity to support many client in the UK and overseas. The highlights are the development of the Cost Engineering Health Check (CEHC) to enable benchmarking the maturity of cost organisations, Knowledge Based Estimating (KBE) and writing the APM Bok version 7. I have had the pleasure of working with clients from Australian Force Design department, armasuisse, Middle East, DGA, Canadian Coast Guard (CCG), Future Fighter Capability Programme (FFCP) and Australian CFO. While in the UK I have conducted multiple studies for the UK MOD, Rolls-Royce, SSRO, QinetiQ, Atkins and the Naval Design Partnership.At the same time my QinetiQ Fellow stipend has provided the opportunity to present QinetiQ capability at numerous conferences and workshops demonstrating continuous through leadership.

The International Cost Estimating and Analysis Association is a nonprofit organization that strives to promote and to enhance the profession of cost estimating and analysis with the primary goal of fostering the professional growth of our members in cost estimating, cost analysis, and allied fields. ICEAA is represented locally by more than 20 chapters nationwide and international affiliates in Australia, Canada, Japan and the United Kingdom.

SCAF was formed in September 1984 following recognition of the need for a forum where those with interests and experience in cost analysis and forecasting could meet to discuss problems and techniques.SCAF was the initiative of the UK members of the International Society of Parametric Analysis (ISPA) with the support of specialist cost groups of the Ministry of Defence (MoD) and the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS).SCAF in association with industry partners has achieved significant improvement in the fields of parametric analysis and cost forecasting. Our seminars have delivered varied valuable contributions to the development of forecasting techniques in the areas of bid assessment, through life costing, benefit analysis and reduction in expenditure of economic and financial appraisals". This has led to more rigorous and credible cost analysis supporting through life capability management of major defence programmes.SCAF has tended towards defence orientated industries, however, it is the intention to welcome and cover a broad a field as possible.www.scaf.org.uk

I had responsibilities for customer in Northern Europe Region, also coordination of our Asia Customers. This includes Consultancy, Training and Technical Support. I have taught courses in hardware, software, life cycle cost and supplier assessment both at the Hook Classroom and customers sites including BAE Systems, Rochester, UK; BAE Systems, Edinburgh, UK; CONTEL, Taiwan, BAE Systems, Adelaide, Australia and BWB, Germany.In addition I have performed consultant for Dutch Space, Systems Evaluation and Analysis (SEA), Augusta Westlands in Italy, BAE Systems Australian and PFG in the UK MOD. I wrote the Validation and Verification Logbook for the PRICE model.I was responsible for the development of the “PRICE HL Questionnaire” within the PRICE Estimating Suite.I was the first European to become an International Society of Parametric Analysts (ISPA) Certified Parametric Practitioner in 2003. I have been the tutor for the “Cost Estimating Relationships” session of the ISPA Professional Development Training at the 2004, 2005 and 2006 conferences

I have actively supported Submarine projects with Whole Life Cost (WLC) estimates including SSN and SSK concept designs, including analysis of their risk register, in preparation for their Initial Gate Business Case.I have been a tutor on Investment Appraisals and WLC for the DPMT PPSM, DMS1 and COEIA course. I was the manager of the OSCAM(Navy) suite of system dynamics estimating tools developed with the DLO and NCCA in Washington.In October 1999 I presented the “Calibration of submarine cost data” to the International PRICE symposium at Cambridge, UK.

My responsibilities were split between the Operational and Methodology sections of the Project Control Division.As a Senior Cost Engineer I was responsible for the generation of financial proposals at prime, subsystem and equipment levels for the Science and Radar Directorate at Bristol. Proposals included Rosetta (Cost Estimating, Risk Manager and Management Board member), METOP (Cost Estimating and Risk Manager), MSG (Cost Estimating), XMM and INTERGAL (Cost Estimating, Risk Manager and Management Board member) satellites and ENVISAT Ground Station. I was also a member of the MORO concept study team responsible for output costs. I also supported other sites, such as Toulouse on the MSG SEVIRI proposal.In my capacity as Cost Engineering and Risk Analysis Methods I was responsible for liaison with IT and other departments on the implementation of Cost Engineering systems. This also includes being the Tutor for a Risk Management Module at the MMS Space School.At the September 1994 PRICE Symposium in Nice, France I presented the CCES software to PRICE users as part of the marketing drive for the system. At the ISPA Conference in San Diego, California I presented a paper titled “Cost Engineering and Estimating in the Bidding Phase” to promote Matra Marconi Space in America and demonstrate to customers and suppliers our costing competence.

This post gave me the opportunity to combine my knowledge gained from my Open University degree with commercial estimating experience. The task was to continue development of a new computerised estimating system. I was the Project Manager responsible to the Estimating Manager for the creation of mathematical models to simulate estimates, and extended to guiding and managing the software development on his behalf. The job consisted of generating estimates on CCES software and promoting its use via presentations to senior management and directors.Risk Management is a requirement of both the MoD and European Space Agency and I was instrumental in introducing different risk techniques into the Space Systems Division. Writing company procedures and giving presentations to senior management and directors having developed the Risk Management skills I acquired while in the Dynamics Division.I estimated proposals for the European Space Agency including XMM and elements of the Polar Platform. This included travel abroad to Lead and Prime Contractors.In 1993 I was involved in a Total Quality workshop which reviewed the Bidding process. This was a cross function group looking at ways of improving and streamlining existing company working practices. Using my database computer skills I was employed to develop three databases for the commercial function, one of which was for the Managing Director.In June 1994 I presented a paper on Cost Engineering at the European meeting of Space System Cost Analysis Group (SSCAG) in Toulouse, France.

To broaden my knowledge I moved jobs in 1987. The Estimating department at BADL enlarged my experience of estimating techniques as I became responsible for PRICE H parametric and ESTIM detailed hardware estimates. Projects included ASRAAM, Wolverine, SAAB Seeker and IEPG MSAMSupplementing this was involvement in engineering development estimates, along with an introduction to a new industry, guided missiles and underwater weapons. While in this post I was responsible for PC training and support and IBM PC network management.In 1989 I was promoted and became responsible for all New Project estimates on the Bristol site reporting to Stevenage. In addition I was responsible for all Life cycle estimating using the PRICE HL model. While in this post I was given an assignment to develop and implement a philosophy for cost risk analysis of projects. This was successfully completed utilising a Monte Carlo simulation technique that was adopted across the division.

After completing my apprenticeship in September 1984 I joined the Engineering Function of the company responsible for the production of Costed Technical Programmes. These were brochures outlining the companies programme and cost proposals to the customer, the Ministry of Defence, in response to formal enquiries. I worked for the Pegasus section of the Plans and Costs department, specifically on the Digital Engine Control programme and Pegasus 11-61.During my apprenticeship I attended Rolls-Royce Technical College and studied for an ONC/TEC certificate and finally a HNC/Higher TEC certificate. Academic studies were sandwiched initially with two years in the college basic training workshop acquiring fundamental fitting and machine operating skills. In the later two years academic studies were sandwiched with a tour of departments and functions in the company to familiarise myself with the diverse skills of the industry
