AEC Budget for Project Budget and Cost Management for Contractors and Engineers

If present market is to be considered, most of the companies make use of finished rates especially from the Government Standard Schedule of Rates (SSR) without calculating volume of resources involved. This unfortunately gives little scope to manage resources without analysis. Even if someone tries to work it out, that may take not less than weeks and months. Seemingly this is a cumbersome activity eating away hundreds of man-hours. At the same time, this cuts short working span of Engineers making it difficult to estimate direct/indirect cost of a project.
