Develop standardized cost frameworks and work breakdown structures (WBS) for Advanced Reactors hardware, software, services, and site work.
Establish cost governance, version control, and traceability across estimates, baselines, and change orders.
Lead periodic cost reviews and gate readiness for program milestones.
Develop bottom-up estimates (BOM, routing, labor standards, tooling, special processes) and top down/parametric models using historical, industry benchmarks, and design complexity drivers.
Create should cost analyses for main commodities (e.g., high temperature alloys, machining, specialized components).
Model NPI learning curves, yield improvement trajectories, and capacity/throughput scenarios for pilot and scaled production.
Partner with engineering to define cost targets by subsystem and perform cost trade-off analyses.
Facilitate DFM/DFA workshops and measure cost impacts of design changes.
Work with Supply Chain to support cost assessments, target pricing, and supplier negotiations.
