Before starting a project, the main thing for the project to be implemented is the existence of a budget plan (RAB). Generally, a project requires a lot of money, so accuracy in making a budget plan (RAB) is very important. Making a budget plan (RAB) is important because it serves as a basic reference in project planning, starting from choosing vendors, and materials to project supervisors so that they run according to the agreement. Here’s an explanation of the budget plan (RAB) that Tom-Mates needs to understand!
According to Sugeng Djojowirono (1984), the Budget Plan (RAB) is an estimate of the costs required for each job in a construction project so that the total cost needed to complete a project will be obtained. Meanwhile, John W. Niron in his book Practical Guidelines for Budgeting and Wholesale Budget Plans for Building Costs (1992), Budget Plans (RAB) have the following meanings:
It can be concluded that the draft budget (RAB) is an estimate or estimate required for each job in a project so that it can be seen how much the total cost is required to complete a project.
According to Ir. A. Soedradjat Sastraatmadja, 1984, in his book “Analysis of the Implementation Budget”, the Budget Plan (RAB) is divided into two, namely:
Use the unit price guideline per square meter or unit price per cubic meter if it is accompanied by the contents of the space. However, conditions in the field often use the unit price per square meter. It is generally used as a quick calculation guide so that it is temporary. The determining factors for the rough cost budget include the type of building plan, number of floors, type of construction, building area, and location where the building is erected.
It is a budget that is calculated carefully and thoroughly by the terms and conditions of the preparation of the cost budget. In the detailed cost calculation, there are technical specifications for the quality of materials and work requirements, the volume of work items, and the unit price of work which are calculated based on the calculation of the Burgelijke Openbare Welken (BOW) analysis.
Cost Budget Plan (RAB) aims to find out the price/item of work as a guideline to spend costs during the project implementation period more effectively and efficiently.
For the RAB to be right on target in its use, here are some stages of preparing the RAB, namely:
Working drawings are the basis for determining what work is required and what materials are used. From the drawings, the size, shape, and specifications of the work as well as the preparation of construction methods will be obtained when in the field.
That is calculating the volume of work in one unit of work.
Each region has a different wage standard, for that, it is necessary to research how much wages are by the project’s target location for workers.
Building a project requires a lot of costs, therefore it takes accuracy and thoroughness in preparing a budget plan.
