First, to do a good job in budget control, we must first understand the milestones of the project.
The budget control of informatization projects is similar to other projects. If we talk about how to control ERP projects now, it is difficult to talk about a result in such a vague way. Because ERP projects have many links, in each link, costs are needed. Therefore, what we need to do now is to sort out all the links of the ERP project and control the project budget by one link. This is much simpler than the budget control of the whole project.
Second, the budget should not be calculated in full.
After making a budget, I always give a discount when I tell others my budget. For example, our company implements an ERP project, and the implementation consultant of the other party asks me, what is the budget of our project? According to my budget in advance, I planned that the software licensing fee was 600,000 yuan, so I told him that according to the above arrangement of our company, the software licensing fee was budgeted at 500,000 yuan. Why? Because if you reveal your background from the beginning, then the other party will bid on the spot. Originally, we only needed 600,000 license fees, so we said 700,000. Let's bargain again. In other words, many software companies quote according to our budget. If our budget is high, their quotation will be high. If our budget is low, their initial offer will be lower.
Three, for the change of project requirements, should strengthen control.
In fact, as far as I know, a large part of the budget overrun of enterprise informatization projects lies in the change of project demand. According to relevant statistics, the cost generated by the change of project requirements accounts for about 20% of the total project expenditure, which shows that this is not a small expenditure. If we can reduce the loss of project requirements change, it will undoubtedly reduce the problem of excessive project support.
Therefore, the key of project budget control lies in the control of project demand change. However, most of the time, it is impossible to eliminate the changes in project requirements. Due to various reasons, such as insufficient preliminary research, unexpected changes encountered by enterprises in the process of project implementation, the proposal of new user requirements during the project process and the continuous improvement of the system after the project is completed, it is possible to cause changes in project requirements.
In addition, we can pay attention to the financial management system of Yuantian Software, which has a set of perfect financial management methods. Glad to answer your question, thank you!
