PCA | Post Calculation

Post Calculation

Post Calculation is a method for analyzing and evaluating the actual costs of a project after its completion. It helps identify deviations and improve planning for future projects.

Effort: medium Difficulty: high Effectiveness: long

Post calculation is usually performed by project management or project controlling at the end of a project to compare planned costs with actual costs and draw conclusions for subsequent projects.

💡 Tip from practice: For larger, longer-term projects, it is advisable to carry out regular plan/actual comparisons (PAC) during the project term.
