Lessons Learned - Next Generation Launch Technology (NGLT)/Credible, Independent Cost Estimates are Needed Early in a Project
Year: 2004
Abstract: Abstract:
The X-43C Project developed an internal cost effort using X-43A actual cost data and heritage United States Air Force (USAF) engine cost data. Two independent cost estimates were performed that were within 10% of the project estimate. Contract proposal estimates came in more than 50% over these estimates. This created significant problems for NASA and the USAF, ultimately contributing to its cancellation. The Agency should possess the ability to perform credible, independent cost estimates.
