OnTrack engineering joined 800 of our colleagues last week at AACE International's 52^nd Annual Meeting & ICEC's 6th World Congress on Cost Engineering, Project Management and Quantity Surveying held in Toronto, Ontario, themed TCM - Cost Engineering for the Global Community

Sunday night kicked off the exhibitor portion of the show, with a newcomer wine and cheese reception that reflected AACE's growth and the trend towards younger engineers.. Monday morning the keynote speech was delivered by David K. Foot, Professor of Economics at the University of Toronto, and co-author of the best-selling books Boom, Bust & Echo: How to Profit from the Coming Demographic Shift, a fascinating look at the demographics in the US and Canada post WWII, and how it relates to business and the economy (the good news is, Baby Boomers are replacing themselves with a new generation of creative thinkers!) The keynote was followed by three days of technical presentations on estimating, cost control, scheduling and Total Cost Management as well as software showcases, continuing education seminars, and great networking. The Women in Project Controls task force sponsored its first presentation, on Cost and Benefits of Building Green, one of many dynamic panel discussions. Record numbers of attendees, including a large international contingency, made this one of the best AACE shows to date. We're already looking forward to next year in Seattle!
