Project cost software

The Project Forecast computer program can assess a project's potential profit or loss before work begins. The program uses the phase breakout portion of an estimate to compare estimated costs with actual costs to create a preliminary report of end results. Users input figures like labor hours and expenses, material costs, percentage complete, and the amount that the contractor has been able to bill to accurately predict results. The program is specifically designed for Windows XP.
