SUMMARY:WCA Chapter Virtual Luncheon: Counting the Cost of Bias: Unveiling Hidden Bias in AI and Cost Data
DESCRIPTION:  \nPlease join us for this month’s Washington Capital Area Chapter (WCAC) International Cost Estimating and Analysis Association (ICEAA) Luncheon \nSUBJECT: WCAC ICEAA October 2026 Luncheon\nTOPIC: Counting the Cost of Bias: Unveiling Hidden Bias in AI and Cost Data (2026 ICEAA Workshop Best Paper Winner\, AI & IT Category)\nPRESENTED BY: Patrick Casey\, Quantech Services\nTIME: Oct 28\, 2026 | 12:00 to 1:00pm Eastern \nABSTRACT\nAs cost analysts increasingly rely on data analytics and AI\, understanding bias has become essential to maintaining estimate integrity. This session explores hidden biases that permeate both AI systems and traditional cost datasets: biases rooted in human judgment\, sampling limitations\, and historical inequities. Real-world examples\, from biased algorithms to cost models trained on incomplete project data\, illustrate how unrecognized bias can distort forecasts and decisions. Attendees will learn how AI trained on internet data can magnify existing societal and institutional biases\, creating a false sense of objectivity. The session connects these insights to common pitfalls in cost estimating\, offering frameworks for detecting and mitigating bias through better data practices\, validation checks\, and human-in-the-loop oversight. Participants will leave with actionable steps for improving fairness\, accuracy\, and transparency in AI-enabled and traditional cost-estimating workflows—ensuring that models serve analysis\, not shape it. \nSpeaker Bio:\nPatrick Casey’s enthusiasm for mathematics and research shapes his career in Cost Analysis at Quantech Services. With six years of DoD experience\, he has supported aircraft modifications\, cloud transformation efforts\, CI/CD pipeline programs\, and developed training resources. Elected ICEAA Region 1 Director for 2025–2027\, Patrick’s 2024 ICEAA Minneapolis Workshop paper earned Best Paper in the Trending Topics Track. He holds certifications as an AWS Cloud Practitioner\, SAFe Lean Agilist\, and IFPUG Function Point Specialist (CFPS). \nMicrosoft Teams meeting \nJoin: https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/248735376560969?p=SupUlLdbeLAt4qSvZG \nMeeting ID: 248 735 376 560 969 \nPasscode: YG2ge6Fq \nNeed help? | System reference \nDial in by phone \n+1 929-352-1792\,\,10699306# United States\, New York City \nFind a local number \nPhone conference ID: 106 993 06#

SUMMARY:Washington Capital Area Chapter Outreach Event - Spend Yourself® 5K Run/3K Walk
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Washington Capital Area Chapter (WCAC) of ICEAA on SUNDAY\, November 8\, 2026 in support of the 15th Annual Spend Yourself® 5K Run/3K Walk.  This fundraiser supports the Spend Yourself® World Hunger ministries of the Columbia Church in Falls Church\, VA and Muchila\, Zambia. Participating WCAC members will meet at the front entrance of Columbia Church at 7:30 am (look for the ICEAA banner).   \nPer the organizers: “the primary purpose of this race is to raise funds that provide a meaningful hand up to those in need. While race registration helps cover event costs\, the true impact comes from the additional support we raise together. We invite you not only to register and participate\, but also to seek sponsorships and encourage donations from friends\, family\, co-workers\, and all your social media followers. With your help\, we can extend support to families locally and around the world to make a lasting difference.” \nOnce registered\, your Spend Yourself® 5K Run/3K Walk shirt and race packets can be picked up from the foyer of Columbia Church at 103 W Columbia St\, Falls Church\, VA 22046 on Friday\, November 6th from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm or Saturday\, November 7th from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm.     \n IMPORTANT EVENT DETAILS:\nWhat: 15th Annual Spend Yourself® 5K Run/3K Walk\nWhen: Sunday\, November 8th | 7:30 am Meetup | 8:00 am Race\nWhere: Columbia Church | 103 W Columbia St\, Falls Church\, VA 22046 \nREGISTRATION:\nPLEASE REGISTER NO LATER THAN SATURDAY\, NOVEMBER 7th\, 2026\nClick HERE to REGISTER \nFor any questions/concerns related to this event\, please send an email to the WCAC Social/Service Chair\, Cameron Atkins-Bennage (events.washington.iceaa@gmail.com) \nEvent Access:\nClosest Metro Stop: East Falls Church Trip Planner | WMATA\nParking: BWA or Kaiser Permanente Lot

SUMMARY:SoCal Chapter Webinar: Integrating Carbon Accounting into Cost Estimation for IT\, Hardware Systems\, and AI Workloads
DESCRIPTION:Integrating Carbon Accounting into Cost Estimation for IT\, Hardware Systems\, and AI Workloads\nNovember 12\, 2026 | 12:00-1:00pm (pacific)\nThis presentation introduces a lifecycle-based framework for integrating carbon emissions into cost estimation for IT infrastructure\, hardware systems\, and AI workloads. The framework estimates greenhouse-gas emissions across production\, transportation\, operation\, and end-of-life stages. It addresses IT services; hardware components\, commercial off-the-shelf items\, and full hardware lifecycles; and AI training and inference\, including energy use\, shared infrastructure\, data storage\, and embodied emissions. Aligned with ISO 14040/44 and ISO 14067\, the approach helps identify emission hotspots\, evaluate design and sourcing alternatives\, and support cost-effective\, climate-aware decisions. \nSpeaker:\nDr. Vivian Tang is a Cost Research Analyst at Unison. Her current research focuses on combining mathematical principles with advanced data collection techniques to develop data-driven solutions for cost analysis\, with particular emphasis on dataset initiatives\, IT services\, AI/ML\, and carbon research projects. She received her Ph.D. in Earth and Planetary Sciences from Northwestern University in 2020. \nRSVP at: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/hewEq4SUSmqavX4-n_WGkA
