Estimating the cost of transportation projects is fundamental to project design and development. In recognition of the importance of cost estimating, these guidelines provide consistent practices across the agency to enhance methods for meeting this responsibility. These guidelines were developed by the Strategic Analysis and Estimating Office (SAEO), with contributions from a number of specialists in cost estimating and project development.
Estimators must be shielded from pressures to produce estimates that match preconceived notions of what a project should cost. Estimates are an objective opinion of cost based on project scope, project schedule, and bidding environment.
