The Brian D. Dunfield Educational Service Award is given in recognition of continuous and significant contributions through educational programs directed to the advancement of total cost management. Membership in AACE is required.

The award was established and endowed in 1998 by Mr. Dunfield (1928 - 2008), a past AACE President and first chair of the AACE Education Board. Mr. Dunfield believed in the value of education to enrich cost engineering knowledge through both university programs and continuing education.
