Hello All,

Has anybody come across a team member trying to justify padding as contingency reserve or as a project manager you are trying to justify padding as a contingency reserve with the client

I am basically trying to understand the pointers to differentiate between padding and contingency reserves

Thanks
Bala

Contingency reserves are determined through actual calculations, while Padding is arbitrary guesses.
