Daily Cost and the What-If
Manage episode 397463824 series 2385860
In this episode, we unravel the key elements of construction activity cost control – real time tracking. The discussion revolves around understanding the daily cost of operations, the significance of labor and equipment costs, and the ability to run "what-if" scenarios to protect your budget. The host provides insights into the difference between budgeted and actual costs, offering a practical example of estimating costs for laying 1,000 LF of 18" pipe. Learn how superintendents can leverage what-if scenarios and gain a deeper understanding of budget gains or losses. The episode concludes with a practical guide on performing these calculations without sophisticated tools, empowering construction professionals to take control of their projects.
I hope you find this episode as informative and as exciting as we have.
