Cost To Complete Review
Recomputes cost-to-complete from current actuals plus remaining scope plus overlay-derived escalation and contingency. Compares against prior CTC and the underwriting baseline. Identifies the driver (labor, material, scope, duration) and recommends remediation (re-estimate, scope trim, re-bid, contingency pull).

Cost-to-Complete Review
Workflow purpose
Build an accurate, transparent cost-to-complete at any point in the project. Trigger remediation when CTC deviates from plan.
Trigger conditions
- Explicit: "run CTC", "cost-to-complete refresh", "pressure-test the remaining budget".
- Implicit:
workflows/draw_package_reviewfinds CTC drift;workflows/change_order_reviewproduces material cost delta; milestone slippage from schedule. - Recurring: monthly per active project; re-run when a CO is reviewed.
Inputs (required / optional)
| Input | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cost-to-date | record | required | from draw or GL |
| Approved COs | table | required | |
| Pending COs | table | required | scenario view |
| Remaining scope | table | required | assemblies, percent complete |
| Schedule update | record | required | for duration-based escalation |
| Prior CTC | record | required | for delta |
| Estimator baseline | estimate | required |
