Budget Planning Tips

Setting Your Budget

Step 1: Determine objectives

  • Fun bonding? → Budget options work
  • Skill development? → Invest in quality facilitation
  • HRDF claim? → Factor in training structure costs

Step 2: Calculate realistic range

Minimum viable budget = Team size × RM100-150/pax
Standard budget = Team size × RM200-300/pax
Premium budget = Team size × RM400-500/pax

Step 3: Add contingency

  • Add 10-15% for unexpected costs
  • Weather backup if outdoor
  • Last-minute additions

Getting Better Value

1. Book in Advance

  • 4-6 weeks ahead for better rates
  • Last-minute bookings may cost more

2. Choose Weekdays

  • Monday-Thursday typically 10-20% cheaper
  • Avoid public holiday weekends

3. Bundle Services

  • Providers offering all-in packages often cheaper
  • Separate bookings add coordination costs

4. Right-Size Your Program

  • Don't over-engineer
  • Match program to actual objectives
  • Sometimes simpler is better

5. Consider Off-Peak

  • Avoid December-January rush
  • Avoid school holidays
  • March-May often good value
