Unit Commentary

This unit is for archaeologists who have responsibility for implementing the strategies and policies of the organisation; who have responsibility for the development of the organisation or a substantial part of the organisation and who have responsibility within the organisation to allocate resources, including people, to achieve their requirements.

It is important to make effective use of resources in an organisation. This is a complex activity as there are many competing demands for expenditure, and they have to be approached in a way that maintains the integrity of the organisation. This unit covers making proposals for expenditure, agreeing budgets for programmes of work and controlling expenditure and activities against budgets.
