Tech/Engineering - Computers: Systems, Networks | | Spanish term or phrase: estimacion de esfuerzos | Iberian Spanish presentation for an IT system. I'm afraid the term is very decontexualised.
The "phrase" where it appears goes like this:
ESTIMACION DE ESFUERZOS POR PERFILES Y FASES (Jornadas)
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

3 mins confidence:   peer agreement (net): +3 estimation of effort required
Explanation:
"effort" is a common word used for the work hours required for a particular IT project.
I think esfuerzos is probable a direct translation of this word, and It's probably a good idea just to translate it back again.
