Project Scoping When The Scope is Unknown 

Facility Managers are often asked, “How much should I budget for…” a one-sentence description of a perceived need. Studies show that 75% of construction projects are over schedule, over budget, or both. Many of those projects were doomed to failure from the beginning because the initial scope and budget were incompatible. This presentation provides tips to overcome those hurdles and identify compatible scope, schedule, and budget from the start.

Learning Objectives:

  • Learn a proven process for early project scoping
  • Understand how the schedule impacts the budget
  • Examine the impact of location and escalation factors on budgeting
  • Identify sample resources for project scoping and budgeting
