How can instrument pre-budgeting be made more reasonable?

Since the company used to be a workshop for the operation and maintenance of chemical industry instruments, it has undergone several years of restructuring, and now cost estimation has become particularly important. Recently, the company noticed significant discrepancies in the estimated costs for our routine maintenance tasks, major repairs, and various instrument-related projects. As a result, the company wants me to work together with instrument engineers who are familiar with the instruments on site, as well as with those responsible for cost estimation, to manage the cost estimation for instruments. It’s important to determine which tasks can be handled using standard rates, and which ones require breaking down the repair of an instrument into separate components – for example, control valves have many accessories, so it’s necessary to find a way to maximize the cost of instrument installation. I would appreciate some guidance from experts, especially from those experienced in instrument cost estimation; examples of relevant cost estimation methods would be even better. Thank you! ! !
Construction and maintenance quotas can be applied; for items that are not available, the two parties or the individual concerned can determine a similar item
Those who prepare budgets often don’t have much technical knowledge. Instrument engineers discuss matters with budget preparers to ensure that no items are overlooked. The standards for cost estimation are strict; only after actual disassembly and repair can the relevant costs be allocated. Items that are not actually present cannot be taken into consideration when calculating costs. Breaking down the fixed quota is only a way to deceive budgeters who don’t understand technology
