This paper discusses the JPL Cost Engineering Group (CEG) cost risk analysis approach that accounts for all three types of cost risk. It will also describe the evaluation of historical cost data upon which this method is based. This investigation is essential in developing a method that is rooted in engineering realism and produces credible, dependable results to aid decision makers.

Groundwater contamination is present at many Superfund and RCRA corrective actionsites. Groundwater cleanup technologies, such as pump-and-treat (P&T) systems and permeable reactive barriers (PRBs), are being used at a number of those sites. Information about the costs of groundwater cleanup technologies and factors that affect those costs may be valuable to site managers, technology developers and users, and others involved in groundwater remediation efforts to identify and evaluate those technologies for new and ongoing projects. This report presents the results of an analysis, performed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), of costs for groundwater cleanup incurred at 48 sites....

This thesis develops a computerized activity-based costing model for the SystemsManagement Department at the Naval Postgraduate School. The purpose of the activity-based costing model is to provide school and Systems Management Department managers a more useful means of evaluating the cost effectiveness of the Systems Management Department's various programs and activities. Three System Management Department outputs, and the activities and processes required to produce these outputs were identified, analyzed, and documented in the computer model. The activities identified were: classroom education, thesis advising, and reimbursable projects.

In fiscal year 2004, about two-thirds of the Department of Energy's (DOE) $26.9 billion in spending went to 28 major facilities- laboratories, production and test facilities, and nuclear waste cleanup and storage facilities. DOE spent about $2.9 billion in fiscal year 2004 to support the mission of its five largest laboratories. GAO was asked to examine (1) recent trends in indirect and functional support cost rates for these five laboratories, noting key differences in how contractors classify costs, and (2) the efforts of DOE and its contractors to reduce indirect and other support costs and identify additional opportunities for savings.

Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) contracts provide for the reimbursement of allowable administrative costs incurred in processing Medicare claims. In claiming costs, contractors must follow cost reimbursement principles contained in the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and the Medicare contracts. Following the close of each fiscal year (FY), contractors submit to CMS a Final Administrative Cost Proposal (cost proposal), which reports the Medicare administrative costs incurred during the year. The cost proposal and supporting data provide the basis for the CMS contracting officer and contractor to negotiate a final settlement of allowable administrative costs. For FY 2008, CMS contracted with HealthNow New York, Inc. (HealthNow) to serve as the Medicare Part B carrier for 45 counties in upstate New York. For this period, HealthNow reported Medicare Part B administrative costs totaling $15,551,803, which included $850,571 in transition costs. In 2008, CMS awarded a Medicare Administrative Contract for the region covered by HealthNow to National Government Services, Inc. (NGS), resulting in the transition of responsibilities under the Part B contract from HealthNow to NGS on September 1, 2008. Our objectives were to determine whether (1) the HealthNow cost proposal for FY 2008 fairly presented program administration costs and (2) the costs were reasonable, allowable, and allocable in accordance with the FAR and the Medicare contract....

This report summarizes operations and maintenance (O&M) cost experience for the following AGT systems for the period 1976-1980: Airtrans, Sea-Tac, Tampa, Disneyworld (WEDway), Pearl Ridge, Minnesota Zoo, and Morgantown. O&M data on the Morgantown system is reported through 1980 (excluding data for the year 1979). Capital cost data is reviewed on Morgantown, Airtrans, Tampa, Sea-Tac, Miami, Busch Gardens, Disneyworld, King's Dominion, Fairlane, Atlanta and Minnesota Zoological Gardens. Updated data has been reported on Orlando and new data for the refined Houston Airport System. System characteristics are presented for both the Duke and Pearl Ridge systems, although no cost information is available at this time. In addition to presenting capital and operating and maintenance costs and trends, this report includes analysis of the factors influencing these costs. A section on the differences between urban and non-urban settings of AGT systems has been included and shows how the costs of existing non-urban systems might relate to a system in an urban deployment in terms of site conditions and site requirements. An appendix describing individual systems in detail is also included....
