My team would engage a monthly regular meeting to analyse and review project finances with the team so as to ensure our spending is within budget lines.
A bi-weekly dashboard will also be engaged with the project manager to evaluate current progress on project finances

Regular meeting and a tool
During the monthly meetings, we have an update on finances made by the financial manager. every week we have the expenditure dashboard
at the end of the monthly meeting, recommendations in the form of a memo are made for the project team on overruns and underconsumption
project Finance is key important for the project's success , how ever for the project to succeed in the activities implementation, commutation is important tools for the project stakeholder to understand the existing budget the project and project what will come next.
The project manager and the financial manager will have to hold a meeting with the whole team staff and break the purpose of the project to each staff and their expected role and after that the financial manager in the process have to explain to the team staff the type of tracking tool the will be used for tracking expenditures and when each staff is supposed to submitted. some of the tool required example Financial tracking and reporting tool
Information about how much money is remaining, how much has been spent, and how much has been obligated to date is all accessible in the project database. This is the main tool that the team uses to keep informed and to inform others about project finances. The finance manager regular checks in with the program team as well.
Every week each team member will be asked to submit report on their expenses which the financial manager will collate in the Financial Tracking & Reporting Tool.
Monthly, the Financial Manager and the Project manager will meet to look into expenses in previous months and calculate both pipelines and burn rate. They will also review the project work plan to make sure our spending do not exceed the obligated fund.
Horizontal and vertical communication of project finances helps to have common understanding of project financial performance and expenditure trends. Plus it gives updated expenditure reports to the departments concerned so that it can be read side by side for current and future undertakings.
Communication on financial issues timely helps solve issues before it gets too late.
Projection of expenditure based on past trend gives light on how to spend in the future (deciding on burn rates).
Project manager should arrange the meeting every end of month with financial manager and all project staff in order to make evaluation of expenditures of previous month, using tracking expenditure tools, and then to make prediction for the future by looking the remained obligated amount.
As the finance manager needs more supervision on managing all project expenses by ensure regular meeting with your team about the project progress
Financial manager needs more understanding about the workplan of the project
Evey month the project manager and the finance manager together with the project team holds a meeting to look at the project expenditure and other things necessary for the project
It will be best to discuss with the project manager and project staff on the modalities that will help to accomplish our project fully with out running out of our obligated amount for the project. There should be a regular meeting twice a month to put everyone o check.

There is strong requirement to discuss about the cost incurred and how much fund is required for future activities. Therefore on-field manager, project manager and finance manager need to held meeting in order to arrive at conclusion how much more funds needed so there will not be any stoppage in an ongoing project.
Communication about project finances is very vital to financial accountability during project implementation. Why do I say so? Because with this measure you will get to know what has been done right or wrong and what steps need to be taken to perfect expenditure.
The Financial Manager needs to gather information weekly on financial obligations completed and those pending and report same to the Project Manager. They both will discuss and present findings and way forward with the entire protect team.
With these logical steps applied, the Financial Manger who wrote the case study communication was able to communicate facts about travel expenses.

Project leaders, finance unit and project staff, will have regular meetings at every Monday of the next month to clearly share and discuss trends in the budget. Fund spend and that remaining on very category of the obligated fund should be well shared and understood by all Project team for possible readjustments.
Monthly financial reports will be distributed to project managers regarding their current projects. Project managers can then review the information obtained and ask questions about the project finances or discuss concerns with the financial team.
project communication is the exchange of information that helps achieve the project objective, its very goal. Communication includes instructions and discussions pertaining to the product and its features, project progress, ideas and thoughts. The better the communication network, the more successful the project. Which basically means that investing in communication is investing in the quality of your product. But beware: even project managers who understand the importance of communication sometimes fail to keep it on track. Make sure you talk to them and communicate your priorities well.
this will help the team to track project burn rate and control expenditures were necessary

The project manager will be meeting the field officers weekly to discuss issues on financial matters and check proper completing on reporting tool. The project manger and financial manager will be meeting monthly to discuss project expenditure based on financial tracking forms and reporting tool to map way forward.
in my organization there is tool called IFMIS. It generates obligated fund and expenses in each activity at any time and the project managers, budget department, finance manager and excutive director monthly evaluate the expenses.
Every month the project manager and the staff team will be holding a meeting concerning the project on how money are being spent and also how much is being left for the achievement of this project.
I hope to on a weekly basis with my team at a round table, share and determine what the financials are looking like and what it would be goiing forward with the help of the financial tracking tool. We will make information sharing a great part of theproject team.
Every month the project manager and the finance manager will meet to reflect on key important aspects on their spending and decide the way forward. They will also engage the field and other support staff through a monthly review where all departments will present on their performance and the expenses incurred and what they should do moving foward.
I clearly communicating this before project kicks off and every weekend i send the report to the project team
That is in justification to the fact that an organization that is used to tracking and communicate about project finances will be able to provide a status update without much trouble. Your organization may go as far as attract additional funding by impressing the donor.

Every month, the project manager and the rest of the team will discuss activity costs from the previous month using information from the Financial Tracking and Reporting Tool and Monthly Expenditure Tool. The purpose of this meeting is to reflect on spending to date to inform future decision-making and ascertain the future of the project financial stance.

The effective way is to have interactive monitoring and tracking expenditure system. However if that is not available other ways for communicating project expenditure would be through e mails- regular meetings and or through a dashboard.
That will be an effective communication plan and an effective project financial management.
Conversation between Project Manager and Finance Manager Discussing variance witnessed on Monthly Expenditure Tracker report.
Project Manager, “From a quick look of over Monthly Expenditure Tracker report I can see that the month of April we incurred a substantial increase in our transport expenses. Would care to give a reason onto this?”
Financial Manager, “Well looking from the Financial Tracking and reporting tool, you will see that we had Annual Democracy Event that required us to provide transport for all items that were to be used during the event from there storage location to the event site back and forth”
Project Manager, “Well explained. Thank you”

Before holding the monthly meeting with the team, The project officer or finance officer should post all the expenses incurred in the month in the monthly expenditure tracking/financial tracking and reporting tool. Then, once in a month the meeting needs to be held with the project manager, financial manager and whole project team to track, review and analyze the expenditure in previous months and to plan budget and activities for the next months. Effective communication about project finances with the team will help to get detailed information on budget expenditure and can effectively manage the obligated budget for the whole period.
Every first week of the month the project manager and the finance manager and the field manager will discuss on the activity cost of the previous month using financial tracking and repotting tool.
Also explain previous month project expenses and information on the available obligated funds. Further reflect on the previous expenses for future decision making and a bi-week dashboard will be engaged to evaluate current progress in finance expenses.
Every week we have a regular meeting related on going activities and their progress and providing details what is remain and how to achive that.
Very correct
Might be
This is not possible if there are long distances to travel where the program team actually works
Every month the finance manager using the expenditure tracking tool will present the project team the situation of the budget and the expenditure.
A monthly meeting between the project team and the finance team to make sure the project finances is healthy or find an immediate solution once there is a problem .
Every month the finance manager has a meeting with program manager to share regarding the expenditure also project work activity also the funds availability .they use usually a tracker to record the expenses
I totally agree with you. I meeting on a monthly basis is important between the Financial Manager, project manager and team members. Occupation meetings can be held in between depending on the urgency of the matter. Other platforms like email, memos can also be used to remind team members and communicate between the project manager and other team members.

That is in justification to the fact that an organization that is used to tracking and communicate about project finances will be able to provide a status update without much trouble. Your organization may go as far as attract additional funding by impressing the donor.

The effective way is to have interactive monitoring and tracking expenditure system. However if that is not available other ways for communicating project expenditure would be through e mails- regular meetings and or through a dashboard.

Before holding the monthly meeting with the team, The project officer or finance officer should post all the expenses incurred in the month in the monthly expenditure tracking/financial tracking and reporting tool. Then, once in a month the meeting needs to be held with the project manager, financial manager and whole project team to track, review and analyze the expenditure in previous months and to plan budget and activities for the next months. Effective communication about project finances with the team will help to get detailed information on budget expenditure and can effectively manage the obligated budget for the whole period.

Monday is a good day to hold a meeting - begining of the week. But not necessarily every week should you hold a meeting.
I agree, thank you.
