Abstract :
When investigating the validity of the basis of estimate for mission phases, it is important to understand how the labor basis of estimate compares with historical missions. As such, it can be very valuable to understand the historical Full Time Equivalent (FTE) labor loading for different historical missions and how the final, actual staffing levels in FTE compared with the initially planned FTEs for these missions at certain project milestones.
