Automatic end-of-project forecast
Four ways to estimate the final cost, and the date earned schedule points to
- At today’s cost performanceSAR 162.6M
- If the rest goes to planSAR 158.5M
- At cost and schedule performanceSAR 179.9M
- The PM’s bottom-up estimateSAR 162.6M
- To stay within SAR 148M, cost performance on the rest must rise to 1.34 — above what has been achieved.
