Which of the following would NOT improve an estimate's accuracy?

  • A.measuring quantities from completed drawings
  • B.increasing the contingency allowance
  • C.advancing the engineering definition
  • D.obtaining firm quotations from suppliers

Answer: B

Contingency acknowledges uncertainty rather than reducing it, so a larger allowance makes the estimate more likely to be sufficient without making it more accurate. The other three each replace an assumption with information.
