Hi Jordan,

Suppose we have five different guys (just for the sake of an example): one is responsable for project definition, other for database creation, other for web design, other for application programming, other for producing help files and documentation.

Each one has his price/hour and estimates his total work hours. Summing all guys work hours * price/hour we have the total cost of project.

Wouldn't that work?

Thanks for replying!

Fernando
