#How to calculate ppm cost dollars full#
the coordinating organisation employs a project manager working full time on the project for the entire duration (24 months).To calculate the total person‑months, multiply the proportion of your effort associated with the project by the number of months of the appointment.Ī project implemented over 24 months involves four organisations with the following staff: So 24 full working days for one person would be 24/18.33 = 1.31 person‑months. The estimated human effort by work package in Part B can be calculated as follows (indicative method): if 1 year = 220 (working) days, then 1 month = 220/12 = 18.33 (working) days. The electronic submission system does not automatically reconcile the various budget tables in the proposal it is the applicant’s responsibility to ensure the consistency of the information provided across the whole proposal package. The total of the estimated costs by cost category in Part B must be consistent with the amounts in the ‘budget overview table’ in Part A. In Part B, all participants have to assign the effort (person‑months) to each work package and this must be consistent with each organisation’s direct personnel (staffing) costs.
The proposal template is composed of two main parts: Part B (technical content of the proposal) and Part A (administrative information and estimated budget of the project). If you want to submit a proposal, you will need to fill in a template. WHERE DO YOU HAVE TO PROVIDE THIS INFORMATION? NB: estimated staff costs must correspond to normal salary rates (documented by salary grids, long-term work contracts, etc.) and cannot significantly exceed the rates generally applicable in the relevant geographical area and for the staff profiles in question (as required for the project).
We need an accurate calculation of ‘human effort’ to evaluate the relationship between the estimated work to be performed and the scale, type and number of activities and deliverables to be achieved during the implementation period.
