Project Manager's Commentary on Reasons For Variance From Plans For most projects the Project Brief should provide a reasonably accurate and detailed estimate of the staff and non staff costs for the project. Project Management research suggests that the actual resources used should typically be within 20% of this figure. The Project Manager should identify any events which required resource or schedule changes for the project.

Delivered under agreed budget .

Key Learning Points

Consider in particular:

1. What went well?

SACS produced detailed BRDs and managed the projects as part of the new SSP team.

2. What didn't go so well?

 

3. If you had a project like this again, what would you improve?

Ensure there is a queue of BRDs available so that the work can be smoothed throughout the year.
