Labor - Expected Execution Budget

The Expected Execution Budget (EB_E) is the amount of labor that the project team plans to spend to execute a project. It is based on what has been spent to date and the amount it has forecasted to execute the remaining scope.

At the beginning of a project the Expected Execution Budget is equal to the Execution Budget. But as the project is executed the Expected Execution Budget can, at any given time, be lower or higher than the Execution Budget:

• Higher - The team will spent more money than expected and the margin generated will be lower than the objective.
• Lower - The team will spent less money than expected and the margin generated will be above the objective.
