NASA Cost and Schedule Symposium

Each year, the NASA HQ OCFO Strategic Insights and Budget Office sponsors the NASA Cost and Schedule Symposium (NCSS), uniting the programmatic PP&C community across all Centers and HQ. This event allows participants from NASA, its contractors, other U.S. government agencies, and partners like universities and national laboratories to share their work and exchange ideas, best practices, methodologies, and lessons learned. The Symposium highlights the contributions of analysts and estimators, fostering professional growth and enhancing the overall quality of analysis at NASA. Attendees engage through professional paper submissions, briefings, presentations, live demonstrations, and training sessions.
