Once you've licensed FullCost, the ultimate cost-modeling tool, we train your staff in both the tool and the method. Then, we'll coach your team through each step in the process of setting up your cost model and your budget, porting your existing data into this powerful platform and identifying opportunities for improving the model in the process.

This training-while-doing is by far the most effective way to prepare your staff to update your budget, rates, and cost model each year.

Involving the "guru" also ensures that your cost model is accurate and robust.

Benefits

• Your project team learns the concepts, data flows, and the software, enabling them to set up your model and repeat the process in future years.

• We configure the model and the software with you.

• We help you set up a partial model, with a clear understanding of how to finish it.

• We generate examples and patterns you can use to complete the model.

• Your project team learns the meaning of the data, and can better explain results.

• There's less risks of mistakes (wasting time on dead ends).

• Just-in-time training for your project team results in a deeper understanding and better retention.

• Your executive and project team spend less time and effort studying and leading the process.
