AES6.1 is a PC software package developed to aid in the preparation and reporting of cost estimates. AES6.1 provides an easy means for entering and updating the detailed cost, schedule information, project work breakdown structure, and escalation information contained in a typical project cost estimate through the use of menus and formatted input screens. AES6.1 combines this information to calculate both unescalated and escalated cost for a project which can be reported at varying levels of detail. Following are the major modifications to AES6.0f: Contingency update was modified to provide greater flexibility for user updates, Schedule Update was modified to provide user ability to schedule Bills of Material at the WBS/Participant/Cost Code level, Schedule Plot was modified to graphically show schedule by WBS/Participant/Cost Code, All Fiscal Year reporting has been modified to use the new schedule format, The Schedule 1-B-7, Cost Schedule, and the WBS/Participant reprorts were modified to determine Phase of Work from the B/M Cost Code, Utility program was modified to allow selection by cost code and update cost code in the Global Schedule update, Generic summary and line item download were added to the utility program, and an option was added to all reports which allows the user to indicate where overhead is to be reported (bottom line or in body of report)

Other Information: DN: At the time the computer is booted, a file named CONFIG.SYS must be in the root directory of the drive from which the system is loaded. The file must contain at least the following lines: FILES = ff, BUFFERS = bb, where ff must be at least 13 and bb must be at least 10. AES6.1 incorporates some codes which accompanY the Turbo Toolbox software package. It is permissible to distribute the object code of these routines with a production system. The source code cannot be distributed due to license restrictions from Borland International, Inc. If errors are encountered during compilation, turn off the strict variable checking in passing parameters. SOURCE CODE IS NOT INCLUDED WITH PACKAGE.; PBD: 1 Mar 1996
