Estimated vs approved budget
What the project proposal estimated before approval, against today’s approved budget and the estimate at completion
- Approved is SAR 7.8M (9.9%) above the estimate
- The estimate at completion is SAR 11.4M (14.5%) above the estimate
From the «project proposal & feasibility study» approved at the approval gate on 2024-09-22 · The gap between estimated and approved comes from the scope update and the change requests approved after the approval gate.

Automatic end-of-project forecast
Four ways to estimate the final cost, and the date earned schedule points to
- At today’s cost performanceSAR 90M
- If the rest goes to planSAR 88.5M
- At cost and schedule performanceSAR 95.9M
- The PM’s bottom-up estimateSAR 90M
- To stay within SAR 86.4M, cost performance on the rest must rise to 1.06 — above what has been achieved.
