Estimation Methodology
The estimation methodology for the budget is bottom-up estimation technique. The project
activities in this technique were put up in a hierarchical structure and the activities at the
bottom of the hierarchy were picked up first. The cost estimation of those activities was done
in the first step followed by the estimation of the rest of the activities. The overall project
budget was then devised by following this process.
Contingency
There will be no contingency funds needed for the project.
Source of Funds
The project client, i.e. Max Lionel Realty will be the primary source of the funds and will
arrange the funds from its business partners and funding agencies.
There may also be Government and public sector firms that may be approached for the funds.
The approvals will be given by the senior management and administration. The
documentation required will be budget summary & report, funds report, and project plan
(Baker, 2007).
