Cost Loading for QCS/RMS

Introduction

With 20+ years of Scheduling and Cost Analysis experience on USACE  funded/managed projects.

Including Environmental, Bid/Construct, and Design/Build.Cost‐reimbursable, Time and Material, and Firm Fixed Price Contracts.

It is important to understand the USACE intent and usage of  a cost loaded schedule and QCS/RMS as part of the Progress Payment process.  That is, your cost loaded schedule is your SOV.  Therefore, it is understanding the Process and the Standard Data Exchange File (SDEF) that becomes the key to understanding how to Cost Load the Schedule.

Today’s presentation is built around Primavera’s P6  Version 

6.2 but the principles and techniques are applicable to MS Project and other Scheduling

It is also based on Firm Fixed Price Contracts, however, 

applicable for Cost Reimbursable and T&M contracts..

Basic Reason for Cost Loading the Schedule

USFG Section 01 32 01.00 10 Paragraph 3.2 BASIS FOR PAYMENT AND COST LOADING 

“Use the schedule as the basis for determining contract earnings during each update period and therefore the amount of each progress payment.”

That is, the cost loaded schedule is your schedule of value for progress payments.  Therefore …

Multiple Resource Assignments are allowed, however, it is only the Resource Assignment’s total Budget and Actual Cost that are exported to QCS/RMS.

Resource units, Activity Earned Value, Activity % Complete are not exported to QCS/RMS.  That is:

% Complete is calculated in QCS/RMS by dividing the Actual Cost by the Budget, that is, % Spent.

Standard Activity Codes

These activity codes were originally defined for P3 which was a flat and finite length register.  Therefore, all codes had to be defined in the order shown and with code length as specified.Several Tips and Tricks for P6:• The order is no longer important, in fact you do not even need to define all 

of them.• The Max length of the Code ID is still important, except:

• FOW 1, 2, & 3 needs to be replaced with just FOW with a code value of 1 to 20 characters ‐ it is not the code value that gets converted to the SDEF, it will load up to 30 characters of the Code Value Description.

• You can use the Hierarchical Activity Code feature in P6 – What gets converted to the SDEF is simple the code assigned  at whatever level you assign it.
