You guys don't get the fundamental purpose of these reports and you are fooling only yourselvea. An Order of Magnitude Study is part of a widely-practised Front End Loaded engineering design methodology designed to do as much analysis up-front as possible so as to totally understand what you are doing before you build anything. An Order of Magnitude Study is an initial study and has an accuracy of +50/ -40 %. Nothing is built until a Definitive Estimate is ready which has an accuracy of +-10%. Any Design Changes are supposed to be included in those tolerances. So supposedly SAIC did an Order of Magnitude study on something that was already built. Does not make sense. These definitions can be easily found on the AACE website or elsewhere. The report that was leaked does not make sense and JBI cannot be legally held to it's accuracy, can they? How interesting...
