Time-Phased Budget vs. Cost-Loaded Schedule 

Traditional cost-loaded scheduling methods often falter under the complexity of megaprojects. Contruent offers a better way like time-phased budgeting, which rolls up multiple cost elements under a control account, separating schedule logic from financial management while maintaining cost and schedule traceability. This approach supports: 

  • More accurate project forecasting and EVM reporting 
  • Streamlined cost updates across multiple activities 
  • Enhanced flexibility for contingency planning and indirect cost phasing 
  • Automated alignment between project estimate, budget and schedule
