EES
The EES system comes complete with a range of facilities including:
Engineering Estimating System is for the engineering sector, particularly within the Water Industry.
EES was originally produced to meet a specification produced by one of the UK's largest water authorities, but has now been adopted by other authorities, which have also contributed valuable functionality.
Today's need to produce quick accurate estimates based upon reliable data, using known statistical formulae and reliable risk assessment, make EES an essential tool for your estimating team.
How can EES help your Organisation?
- Improved quality of estimating at all levels
- Fast retrieval of project costs, unit rates or resource costs
- Data captured electronically from previous estimates or BoQs
- Easy revisions, spreading and adjustments to estimates
- Industry accepted, or user defined risk modelling
- Consistency of descriptions and pricing
- Electronic indexing and updating
- Enhanced reporting and exporting to ODBC / data warehouse
- Assesment of Carbon information alongside Cost information
Functionality
- Database of elemental costs from previous projects
- Unit price databases
- Early stage project estimates based upon previous projects
- Early stage part level estimating
- Elemental and sub-elemental estimating
- Risk analysis including links to 3rd party risk software
- Cost model graphing based on user-defined data labelling, such as size/type of project, location, type of work, form of contract etc.
- Exporting to ODBC / data warehouse / 3rd party software
Estimating Stages
- Feasibility estimating
- Project level estimating
- Part level estimating
- Unit rate pricing
- Resource level pricing
Elemental Cost Analysis
Elemental costs can be analysed from previous projects using appropriate ‘yardsticks’ or ‘cost drivers’. These analysed costs can then be used, inflated, and adjusted using statistical formulae, to produce accurate cost forecasts.
Multiple ‘cost drivers’ can be employed, so, for example a pipeline project can use cost drivers of mL/day, or diameter, or indeed length. When producing a new cost forecast or estimate, the user selects the appropriate previous projects by user defined criteria. The data can the be used at any level (i.e. project cost/part cost/ elemental costs) to procure an estimate at the level of information available on the new project.
All previous project costs are adjusted as appropriate and presented to the user in clear concise format.

Cost Planning
Elemental and Sub-Elemental estimating creating Cost Plans, with Unit or Elemental rates built up from historical similar projects and processes.
Cost Plans can be built up from Measured Items.
|
|
|
Cost Modelling
Sophisticated Cost Modelling and Analysis facilities are available within EES. Cost Models can be produced at Project, Asset Type, Process Group, Process and Element levels.
These include the indexing and uplifting of costs from previous projects, and if required the spreading of Oncosts.
At Process level, TR61 comparisons can also be made.
User-defined depreciation and tax codes, giving asset expenditure reporting, Depreciation and Tax Analysis.
Proven statistical weighting of data points.
Production of reports to users or OFWAT requirements, including graphs and cost modelling.

|
Measured Estimating
Measured Approximate Quantity estimating can be carried out using the Price Databases, or items from previous projects.
The Rates can be created from Standard Rates, or built up, to produce optional Labour, Plant, Material and Sub-contract resourcing.
|
|
|
Price Databases
The Price Databases can be used to feed standard item and standard rate information into the Projects Approximate Quantities Measurement database. By selecting from the Price Database, an estimate can be built from the bottom up, allowing full resource breakdowns.
|
|
|
Carbon Accounting and Modelling
Carbon Accounting is an optional module for EES.
Storing of Carbon Factor information alongside Cost information at all levels (Project, Process, Element, Measured Item).
A Shadow Price of Carbon can be stored and used to give Carbon Factors an associated Carbon Cost, which can be displayed alongside the pricing cost information.
Carbon Modelling can be done at all levels in conjuncture with pricing cost modelling to give both carbon formulae and cost formulae for a process of work.
