First we need to check clients requirement. How he need it?
When he needs it? Whether he needs it in low budget or In a
high budget? One thing we have to keep in mind that, the
Quality Control need to be maintained as much as possible.
If we give clients a good service, they will prefer to give
more projects. We should not expect more profit and giving
him a bad service/quality. Keep a reasonable margin and
give "THE BEST SERVICE" from your end.

Answer / svs gopinath
1. Create the WBS of the project.
2. Assign TeamMember for each Task
3. Prepare the schedule of the Project.
4. Calculate the Effort based on the schedule & Number of
Team members
For example:
Project Shedule is 2 Month with 2 Team Member( Considering
8 Hrs per day)
That Means Effort is 4 Manmonths
Assume that Per Hour cost is 20$
One day cost per resource is 8 * 20 = 160$
One day Cost for two resources are 165*2 = 320$
Number of Working days in one Month is 22 days.
Number of Working days in 2 Months are 2* 22 = 44 days.
Add 4 Hours of Project Management that means Number of
days for project Management is 22 Days.
Total Number of days = 44+22 = 66 days
The Total Poroject Cost = 66 *320$ = 21120$
( Note: I have Assumed cost per hour is 20$ for Project
Management Also. This cost may be diferent
I have Considered this Project executed @ offOsore
Onsite Cost will be more.
If the project is executed in ofshore/Onsite model , cost
will be diferent)
