It provides an overview of the following major processes:
Resource Planning – determining what resources (people, equipment, materials, etc) and what quantities of each should be used to perform project activities.
Cost Estimating – developing an approximation (estimate) of the cost of the resources needed to complete project activities.

COST CONTROL
• Cost control is concerned with (a) influencing the factors which create changes to the cost baseline to ensure that changes are beneficial, (b) determining that the cost baseline has changed, and (c) managing the actual changes when and as they occur
![Page 15: 1 PROJECT COST MANAGEMENT by Sserwadda Tamuzadde 0772979303 Email- mtsserwadda@yahoo.com](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649f1e5503460f94c34fa5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
Cost Control includes:-• Monitoring cost performance to detect
variances from plan• Ensuring that all appropriate changes are
recorded accurately in the cost baseline • Preventing incorrect, inappropriate, or
unauthorised changes from being included in the cost baseline
• Informing appropriate stakeholders of authorised changes
![Page 16: 1 PROJECT COST MANAGEMENT by Sserwadda Tamuzadde 0772979303 Email- mtsserwadda@yahoo.com](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649f1e5503460f94c34fa5/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
Cost control includes searching out for the “whys” of both positive and negative variances. It must be thoroughly integrated with the other control processes (scope change control, schedule control, quality control etc). For example, inappropriate responses to cost variances can cause quality or schedule problems or produce an unacceptable level of risk later in the project.

BUDGETING
• Definition: A plan translated in financial terms for the resource and operations of a business, organisation or project for a stated period in the future.
• Or simply a statement of incomes and expenditures.
![Page 30: 1 PROJECT COST MANAGEMENT by Sserwadda Tamuzadde 0772979303 Email- mtsserwadda@yahoo.com](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649f1e5503460f94c34fa5/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

Budgeting
Development project managers have several major tasks to perform in respect of managing project funds. These can be summarised as follows:-
1. Determining the requirement for funds to service the needs of scheduled activities during a defined period
![Page 31: 1 PROJECT COST MANAGEMENT by Sserwadda Tamuzadde 0772979303 Email- mtsserwadda@yahoo.com](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649f1e5503460f94c34fa5/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
2. Controlling the project through the allocation of project funds to different activities.
2. Making adjustments in the allocation of funds between activities during the planned time period.
![Page 32: 1 PROJECT COST MANAGEMENT by Sserwadda Tamuzadde 0772979303 Email- mtsserwadda@yahoo.com](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649f1e5503460f94c34fa5/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
The advantages of the budget system can, therefore, be summarised as follows:-
1. It can be directly linked to the implementation planning exercise and therefore directly reflect the objectives of the project.
2. The organisational structure of the project is defined in terms of zones of financial responsibility under the budget.
3. Each project subsection is involved in determining its own objectives and work programme through the exercise.
![Page 33: 1 PROJECT COST MANAGEMENT by Sserwadda Tamuzadde 0772979303 Email- mtsserwadda@yahoo.com](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649f1e5503460f94c34fa5/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
33
4. It stimulates communication within the project and helps to resolve conflicts.
5. It provides a basis for allocating priorities and assists with resource allocation throughout the project structure
6. It provides the basis for a monitoring and control system which can allow for speedy corrective action if required.
7. Budgeting allows management personnel to take responsibility for planning their work, setting targets and measuring their performance which can all add up to a stimulus to obtaining higher levels of achievement.
![Page 34: 1 PROJECT COST MANAGEMENT by Sserwadda Tamuzadde 0772979303 Email- mtsserwadda@yahoo.com](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649f1e5503460f94c34fa5/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
34
FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT AND ACCOUNTING
While the project budget represents the implementation plan in financial terms, the actual operational aspects of handling the finance requires the development of appropriate organisational structures and systems.
Most managers of development projects are not accountants, nor need they be .
![Page 35: 1 PROJECT COST MANAGEMENT by Sserwadda Tamuzadde 0772979303 Email- mtsserwadda@yahoo.com](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649f1e5503460f94c34fa5/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
35
A basic understanding of accounting, however, may be of help to managers.
All projects of any size, need an accounts section which supports three basic tasks:
1.Planning, control and
recording of transactions
2.Presentation of information
3.Financial decision-making
The information resulting from the first two tasks allows management to undertake the third.
Tasks of accounts section

36
WHY BUDGET
• To help management in the planning of annual operations.
• To co-ordinate the activities of the various parts of the organisation/project and ensure that the parts are in harmony with each other.
• To communicate plans to the various responsibility centre managers.
![Page 37: 1 PROJECT COST MANAGEMENT by Sserwadda Tamuzadde 0772979303 Email- mtsserwadda@yahoo.com](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649f1e5503460f94c34fa5/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
37
• To motivate managers to strive to achieve the organisational/project goals/objectives
• To control activities (organisational or project)
• To evaluate the performance of managers
![Page 38: 1 PROJECT COST MANAGEMENT by Sserwadda Tamuzadde 0772979303 Email- mtsserwadda@yahoo.com](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649f1e5503460f94c34fa5/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
38
APPROACHES TO BUDGETING
• Incremental budgeting
• Zero base budgeting (ZBB)
![Page 39: 1 PROJECT COST MANAGEMENT by Sserwadda Tamuzadde 0772979303 Email- mtsserwadda@yahoo.com](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649f1e5503460f94c34fa5/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
39
TYPES OF BUDGETS
• Operating Budgets – Recurrent
• Capital Budgets – Development
• Financial Budgets (cash budgets, projected income and expenditure statement and projected balance sheet).
![Page 40: 1 PROJECT COST MANAGEMENT by Sserwadda Tamuzadde 0772979303 Email- mtsserwadda@yahoo.com](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649f1e5503460f94c34fa5/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
40
CASH FLOW STATEMENT/BUDGET
• A cash budget is a detailed statement of the expected cash receipts and payments during the next period (usually a year divided into twelve months).
• The cash budget shows the expected cash position for each of the periods ahead. This enables the organisation/project to assess whether operations can continue as planned.
![Page 41: 1 PROJECT COST MANAGEMENT by Sserwadda Tamuzadde 0772979303 Email- mtsserwadda@yahoo.com](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649f1e5503460f94c34fa5/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
41
Whether expenditure needs to be reduced or curtailed, whether there is the need to approach the bank for a loan or overdraft, etc.
It is important to note that cash flow for a period does not necessarily equal the profits for that period

Budgetary Expenditure Control Process:-
• Preparation of a budget
• Identification of responsibility centre
• Adoption of mutually agreed targets
• Periodic monitoring and recording of actual performance
• Careful comparison of actual with planned performance.
![Page 44: 1 PROJECT COST MANAGEMENT by Sserwadda Tamuzadde 0772979303 Email- mtsserwadda@yahoo.com](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649f1e5503460f94c34fa5/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
44
• Assessment of deviations or variances and investigating their causes
• Initiation of corrective action to carry out the necessary adjustments.
![Page 45: 1 PROJECT COST MANAGEMENT by Sserwadda Tamuzadde 0772979303 Email- mtsserwadda@yahoo.com](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649f1e5503460f94c34fa5/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
45
Corrective action:- Anything done to bring expected future project performance into line with the project plan•Preventing incorrect, inappropriate or unauthorised changes from being included in the cost baseline/budget•Informing appropriate stakeholders of the authorised changes•An estimate at completion (EAC). This is a forecast of total project costs based on the project performance to date.
