Remedial Action Cost Engineering Requirements (RACER™) System

Description:

A PC-based system originally developed in 1991 by the U.S. Air Force. The system uses a patented methodology for generating location-specific program cost estimates. The system allows the user to select the desired models from a list of available technologies, define the required parameters in the selected technology, and tailor the estimate by verifying and editing secondary parameters. RACER™ calculates quantities for each technology; localizes unit costs for materials, equipment, and labor; adjusts unit prices for safety and productivity losses; and allows markups to account for indirect costs. RACER™ uses current multi-agency pricing data, and is researched and updated annually to ensure accuracy.
