Estimated vs approved budget
What the project proposal estimated before approval, against today’s approved budget and the estimate at completion
- Approved is SAR 33.3M (16.3%) above the estimate
- The estimate at completion is SAR 43.2M (21.1%) above the estimate
From the «project proposal & feasibility study» approved at the approval gate on 2025-04-22 · 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

- If the rest goes to planSAR 241.3M
- At cost and schedule performanceSAR 419.1M
- The PM’s bottom-up estimateSAR 247.9M
- To stay within SAR 238M, cost performance on the rest must rise to 1.02 — above what has been achieved.
