The discussion will cover the new interim guidance posted by Ms. Lord on 3 Jan 2020. The changes currently reflect a growing desire to shift most custom software development work to some type of agile development. This leaves a lot of open questions about the implications that occur and its impact on estimating costs prior to the development work starting. Speakers: Darrell Hamilton teaches primarily software cost estimating (BCF250) and the Understanding Industry course (ACQ315). His background has been primarily in software development and software acquisitions.
