Project cost management is a really important part of project management. Project activities have an associated cost, and a cost management approach monitors the cost performance of the project to meet the agreed budget.
Cost management is the process of carrying out the project efficiently. Key stages such as planning, budgeting, estimating, and controlling spend, are involved to make sure the project is completed in the desired timeframe and within the approved budget.
