The created tailored system leverages the automation of complex processes, supporting future operational, strategic, and financial decision-making. This Work Project’s individual part details the implementation of a Zero-Based Budgeting process that culminates in a set of Static Operating Budgets which help the company to anticipate operational and financial needs and allow to project future revenues and spendings. To grant the adaptability and flexibility that COMPORTA’s operations require, a Forecast step was added to the budgeting process.engManagement control systemCosting systemWeighted average cost methodBreak-even pointBudgeting processZero based budgetingStatic budgetForecastPerformance measurementBudgetary controlVariance analysismaster thesis203310780
