Many project managers lack a clear handle on how their projects are performing financially. Most commonly it is because they have not been trained in how to forecast properly. We find many contractors struggle with how to build a robust cost projection process that provides for consistency and predictability. Profit fade at 90% complete is no longer an option in today’s market. Teach project managers how to properly set up job budgets, track progress and forecast accurately. Moreover, learn critical financial indicators that point to problems on projects early so they can be rectified.

Learning Objectives:

• Identify how to manage work-in-process for better profitability

• Understand the relationship between project profitability and processes (budgeting, forecasting, change control, job status reporting and WIP)
