Budget is like a GPS for portfolio projects. It enables you to stay on course, while avoiding any drift. It's also an indicator of how well projects are progressing. Keep an eye on it to better control spending!
Having a real-time snapshot is essential at every stage of the project, so you know where you stand. This makes it easy to track your budget and present it to your management in just a few clicks, directly from Airsaas.
For each project in the scoping phase, your project managers add several detailed expense lines, classified as CAPEX and OPEX, to anticipate costs and make the validation stage more objective.

It's hard to foresee all the expenses you'll need when you create your budget during the scoping phase! If new expenses arise during the execution phase, don't worry. You can add them to those already planned for greater agility, while keeping track of what was validated during the scoping phase.
AirSaas adapts to all types of organization, making budget tracking even easier to understand! For each expense, your project managers can enter an analytical axis. You can then access consolidated graphs of project spending by axis, and discover the main cost items. If the analytical axes provided aren't sufficient, don't worry - you can add your own in just one click.

It's quite simple: if the project has no prioritization, it doesn't appear as a business priority on the roadmap. That helps :)
