Join us as we explore key estimating and cost control practices across both Predictive and Agile project environments. We’ll look at how predictive methods like Earned Value Analysis support performance tracking, and Agile tools such as burndown charts help teams stay on track. Along the way, we’ll highlight common estimating techniques and how they’re applied in real-world projects to improve accuracy and decision-making.
In this webinar, we’ll explore essential estimating and cost control techniques used across both predictive and adaptive project environments. We’ll compare how estimation works in traditional, plan-driven projects versus Agile approaches that embrace change and iterative delivery.
Key topics include Earned Value Analysis (EVA) — a powerful method for tracking project performance in predictive settings — and burndown charts, commonly used in Agile to visualise progress and forecast completion. We’ll also break down a range of practical estimating techniques, such as Analytical, Parametric and three-point estimating, and planning poker.
