Illustrative model: base engineer-weeks plus scope allowances, with a 1.5–2.2 uncertainty multiplier. Budget = engineer-weeks × your editable planning rate. Calendar = effort ÷ assumed two engineers plus 2–4 weeks for coordination and validation. These are model assumptions, not RESULTWARD historical delivery data or published rates. Discovery, vendor fees, taxes, ongoing support and specialist compliance work are excluded.
