Abstract

This report mentions some of the difficulties faced by labor estimators when predicting the labor necessary to produce complex weapon systems. Specific attention is focused on estimating the durations and frequencies of testing, troubleshooting, and retesting activities. Emphasis is placed on estimating in a logical manner while using factors based on subjective judgment.
