What is a Financial Management Plan?
A Financial Plan identifies the Project Finance (i.e., money) needed to meet specific objectives. The Financial Plan defines the various types of expenses that a project will incur (labor, equipment, materials, and administration costs) along with an estimation of the value of each expense. The Financial Plan also summarizes the total expense incurred across the project, becoming the project budget. As part of the Financial Planning exercise, a schedule states the money needed during each project stage.
