Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

For Engineering, convert the total estimated manhours to cost (i.e. manhours x ave. unit rates of the engineering team per hour + overheads, profits, etc.). Divide it with the Total Contract Price and that will be your weight for Engineering.

Net Amount of Procurement = (100% - Wt. of Engineering) x Supply Contract Price

Weight of Procurement = Net Amount of Procurement / Total Contract Price.

Net Amount of Construction = (100% - Wt. of Engineering) x Construction Contract Price.

Weight of Construction = Net Amount of Construction / Total Contract Price.

If you want to have a separate weight for Commissioning convert commissioning manhours to cost (following the same steps for engineering). Divide commissioning cost to Total Contract Price to get commissioning weight. Of course, you have to subtract commissioning weight to the calculated construction weight above to adjust the weight of construction accordingly.

I hope this will help.

Cheers,

could understand the question correctly but yes there is certainly a way of preparing a s-curve including all the EPC activities. mhrs could be worked out for all the the heads.
