Accuracy in cost estimation is crucial for the success and feasibility of capital projects. Yet cost estimates often involve uncertainty and unforeseen circumstances that can negatively impact the project timeline and budget.

Cost estimation is one of the key aspects of any engineering project, as it provides the basis to decide the feasibility and budget for the project. Yet cost estimation is often enclosed by uncertainty since during early engineering stages there is still very little information available. How can engineering teams find the most profitable designs when the project is still under development?
