This document discusses key aspects of project cost management including creating a cost management plan, estimating costs, determining the budget, establishing a cost baseline, controlling costs using earned value management, and forecasting. It describes estimating direct and indirect costs, developing a cost baseline by aggregating activity estimates plus reserves, calculating variances and performance indices to measure cost and schedule performance, and forecasting the estimated cost at completion using different methods.
21. Determine Budget Aggregating the estimated costs of individual activities to establish a cost baseline. + Reserves = Cost baseline 8 www.ciklum.net
22. Cost Baseline Cost performance baseline is a time-phased budget used to measure, monitor and control cost performance over the project. 9 www.ciklum.net
