Projects are complicated, time-consuming, and demanding. One of the projects on which we worked overseas demanded the preparation of the cost plan in a negligible time frame. Our whole team bifurcated the tasks into multiple segments and split up that massive structure into achievable milestone targets. Each team worked on their segment with greater effort, and the other audit team simultaneously checked the deliverables prepared by the costing team and corrected the outputs. In this way, within five days of the timeframe, we completed a massive project.
