Website Upgrade Incoming - we're working on a new look (and speed!) standby while we finalise the project

Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

During the time when I was working with one of the biggest international companies in the Middle East, they had developed a software (database)for estimates of materials, equipment with equivalent estimate of labour (manhours) and cost. This is done during the engineering/design stage where they estimate bill of materials and input it on a database. The data base is cost coded which basically can be group to form a work package. The system is very good and information is very useful during the procurement and construction stage. Imagine having all the components of a project on a database and using an inteligent cost coding system, it makes life in construction easier.

Cheers,
Daniel
