This paper presents our approach to model product cost using the Activity-based Costing methodology. We address the support of information sharing and activity synchronization within a team and between teams. An original software for product cost modelling Win Design ABC is presented in this paper. The developed system has the capability of selecting an activity, as well as machining processes and parameters based on a set of design and production parameters and of estimating the product cost throughout the entire product development cycle.
