The Project Budget Chart displays the cumulative estimated payment schedule for the project on the black line and the actual cumulative project expenditure on the colored line. The goal is to provide the finished product as specified by the requirements analysis document within the agreed budget.
Change is a normal part of the project life cycle. As changes to the project plan are identified, Catapult Systems provides an analysis of the changes and proposes a solution and cost estimate for the requested change. Once the change is approved, the budget amount for the project is modified and reflected on the budget chart.
