NASA Cost and Schedule Symposium

2024 NASA Cost Symposium banner showing an aerial view of Langley Research Center

Each year the NASA HQ OCFO Strategic Investments Division sponsors the NASA Cost and Schedule Symposium, bringing together the entire estimating and analysis community at NASA. The NASA cost, schedule, and EVM communities include all Centers as well as HQ and represent essential functions to the agency.  Speakers and presenters at the Symposium are given the opportunity to demonstrate and share their work with colleagues and professionals from NASA, NASA Contractors, other US Government Agencies, and many NASA partners such as Universities or National Laboratories.  The NASA Cost and Schedule Symposium is a chance for everyone in the community to exchange ideas, best practices, methodologies, and lessons learned.  We look forward to seeing the tradition of the Agency’s finest analysts and estimators at NASA continue to make NASA better.  The Symposium recognizes of the efforts of everyone in PP&C and affords the community an opportunity to present in a professional forum that can foster their individual and organizational growth, as well as improve the overall quality of analysis at NASA. Attendees and presenters are substantively involved in the event through submission of professional papers, conducting briefings and presentations, completion of live demonstrations, and participation in training.
