Following an apprenticeship with Rolls-Royce and I joined BAe with their CCES.

Lots of help for Cost Engineering

During a period as a Cost Engineer I was unclassified and this library of work has become accessible. These items can become promoted for staff with years of knowledge that are unclassified.

These articles promote the locations where I was working and the techniques used to extract interesting information from them.

Work your way through this library and determine which papers and presentations are interesting and useful to enable you to learn!
