  1. Resources: Book: PMP in Depth by Dr. Paul Sanghera Book: The PMP Exam, How to Pass on Your First Try By Andy Crowe Project Management Lessons in Undergraduate Study Work Experience Just E.T.C for Business, Education, Technology, and Entertainment Solutions Project Management, PMI Approach (PMP)Project Cost Management sayed@justEtc.net, www.justEtc.net Sayed Ahmed BSc. Eng. in CSc. & Eng. (BUET, Bangladesh) MSc. in CSc. (University of Manitoba, Canada) http://sayed.JustEtc.net http://www.JustETC.net

  2. What does Cost Involve? • Costing Involves • Cost to purchase, develop i.e. to have the system • Operation cost • Cost to disposal • Value Engineering • Get the most from a project • Decrease cost • Increase value • Increase quality • Shorten schedule • Keep project scope not reduced sayed@justEtc.net, www.justEtc.net

  3. Cost Estimating • When cost estimation is done? • After project scope is defined • and work breakdown structure is created • But may be performed again and again • over the total life cycle sayed@justEtc.net, www.justEtc.net

  4. Cost Estimating • Tools • Analogous Estimating • Based on the similar actual projects • Bottom up estimating • Estimate cost for each activity and sum them - time consuming • Parametric Estimating • 1 mile road construction needs $400,000. • So 10 miles will require $10*400,000 • Reserve Analysis • A buffer cost against slippage on the project • Cost of Quality • Costs required in order to get quality • Output • Activity Cost Estimates sayed@justEtc.net, www.justEtc.net

  5. Cost Budgeting • Cost Budgeting • Maps costs and dates • How much will be spent on what and when • Also, termed Cost Baseline • When is cost budgeting done? • After • activities are defined and scheduled • Activity durations and resource requirements are also estimated sayed@justEtc.net, www.justEtc.net

  6. Cost Budgeting • Tools • Cost Aggregation • Activity level costs should be aggregated to the work level • where they will be measured, managed, and controlled • Reserve Analysis • Financial reserve to protect projects against cost overrun • Parametric Estimating • Use simple straight forward formulas • Funding Limit Reconciliation • Comply with the project funding • Many times funds are allocated even before the scope is defined • Output • Cost Baseline • Project Funding requirements sayed@justEtc.net, www.justEtc.net

  7. Cost Control • Cost Control • Monitoring, controlling, adjusting costs • When is it performed? • Over the whole life cycle • Bi-weekly or monthly analysis may be done • Tools • Cost Change Control System • How the cost baseline may be changed • Performance Measurement Analysis • Calculate • Earned Value, • Planned Value, • Actual Cost, • Estimate to complete, • Estimate at Completion, • Cost Performance Index and similar • to measure performance and control costs based on these • Forecasting • Use current and previous cost values to estimate future costs • Variance Management sayed@justEtc.net, www.justEtc.net

  8. Cost Control • Output • Cost Estimate Update • Cost Baseline Update sayed@justEtc.net, www.justEtc.net

  9. Cost Management terms • Earned Value • The value the spent money brought to the project • Just like double entry accounting system • for every debit to an account there is a corresponding credit • Budgeted at Completion (BAC) • How much was originally planned for this project • Planned Value (PV) • Calculates how much of the project should be complete at a certain date according to the plan • Planned Value = Planned%complete*BAC • Earned Value (EV) • How much is actually done during a period • EV=Actual%Complete*BAC • Actual Cost • Money spent over the period sayed@justEtc.net, www.justEtc.net

  10. Cost Management terms • Cost Variance (CV) • Difference between planned cost and actual cost. • CV = EV – AC • Schedule Variance (SV) • Difference between the planned schedule and actual schedule • (as:Wherethe project is in the schedule). • SV=EV-PV • Cost Performance Index (CPI) • The rate at which the project cost is performing regarding cost expectations • CPI is done for a given period of time. • CPI = EV/AC • Cumulative CPI • It's the CPI from the project start time to a particular point in time. • CCPI = CEV/CAC sayed@justEtc.net, www.justEtc.net

  11. Cost Management terms • Schedule Performance Index (SPI) • The rate at which the project is performing in respect of schedule expectations up to a point in time • SPI=EV/PV • Estimate at Completion (EAC) • Forecast the total cost at project completion based on the project performance up to a point in time. • EAC = BAC/CCPI • Estimate to Completion (ETC) • How much more will be spent to complete the project based on past performance. • Variance at Completion (VAC) • Difference between what was budgeted and what will actually be spent. • VAC = BAC - EAC sayed@justEtc.net, www.justEtc.net

  12. Project Cost Management • Project managers need to calculate these values • to get a good understanding of the project cost • He can get answers to questions like • How much is spent? • How much more are required? • Is the project progress satisfactory in terms of cost? • These will ultimately help in project cost control sayed@justEtc.net, www.justEtc.net
