007 - Naomi Enav - An Inside Look at Aspen Capital Cost Estimator

Naomi Enav is always working on educating up and coming estimators either through workshops she hosts, the ACCE Houston User’s Group (HUG), or the Optimize conference. She will be speaking at the AACE Project Controls Symposium in November. You’ll want to attend that to hear what she has to say about the future of estimating technology as well as the 21 other technical presenters and the cutting edge topics. See the show notes for a link or go to www.projectcontrolssymposium.comto register for this amazing event in Houston Texas. I had a lot of fun talking with Naomi, she is a wonderful personality, truly passionate about her work, and doing things that will provide value to our community for years to come. The Aspen Capital Cost Estimator (ACCE) has been known by a few names in its storied history – K-base being the most common one still used by the old school.  It is a powerful estimating software that I use in my project cost estimating practice and for good reasons. It makes estimating easy and thorough. I’m not getting anything for saying this, this is no sales pitch. There is a reason it is considered an industry standard and it is the tool that I know best and use the most to estimate project costs with. It is used by companies all over the world and on many of the largest projects in history.  Speaking of the ACCE Houston HUG meeting, I am scheduled to be the next presenter in October. So, come out to the AspenTech’s Houston office, check out my presentation, and say hi to me! I’d love to meet some of my listeners in person. I don’t have a link for that, so email me at [email protected] and I’ll send you the info.
