Estimating is a vital part of the project planning phase and involves estimating the project costs, resources, or duration. Estimating a project can be a challenging task no matter what the size or budget of the project is. The more complex and larger the size and budget of the project, the more difficult it gets to appropriately estimate the project. Faulty or incorrect estimates will result in delayed deadlines and breaking budgets – two key symptoms of project failure.
