摘要：
Software development companies often produce overoptimistic cost estimates, which could lead to delivery problems for the clients and the providers. Clients can avoid selecting overoptimistic providers via their control of the bidding process and by following the strategies in this article. Conversely, the author's suggestions also help software providers identify bidding rounds in which it's likely that they'll win only if they're strongly overoptimistic. © 2009 IEEE.
