Project-based organizations face a range of additional accounting and financial reporting requirements, not just from within but also from an increasingly onerous regulatory framework. Internally, project accounting will frequently cross organizational and geographic boundaries, with matrix management placing a further demand for flexible project reporting. Additional complexity is introduced with projects lasting for anything from a few days or weeks to a number of years, during which time budgets may also be revised many times. On top of such internal considerations, regulatory compliance and the need for transparent revenue recognition place a further strain on project accounting.
