-> ### Hours Burned vs. Hours Earned
->
-> Definition:
-> Comparison between portion of project estimated hours complete
-> compared with the actual hours spent on the task.
-> This is the labor performance factor
-> (needs to reference the labor factor used at bid time for a full comparison).

-This is a terribly problematic metric.
-
-If a project went over its material budget
-despite standard rigorous oversight
-where would you first look,
-construction or estimating?
-In almost all cases the safer bet is estimating.
-Why should labor be different?
-
-Wherever there is budget variance
-there is a persistent tendency to blame construction
-before estimating.
