Where a manufacturing cost estimator can go next
5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a manufacturing cost estimator already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.
Manufacturing cost estimators collect and analyse data to evaluate the money, materials, labour and time required for manufacturing processes. They conduct analyses to identify (alternative) cost effective technical designs and production processes. They develop and use methods and tools for cost planning, controlling and analysis. They also perform quantitative and qualitative risk analyses and report on the development of costs.

How these figures were compiled
Coverage is the share of the target role’s weighted skill requirement a manufacturing cost estimator already meets, counting required skills in full and supplementary ones at 0.35. It is directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. Every entry above opens the full comparison for that move: what carries over, what is missing, and where to start. The full method.
