An interface with a user for permitting the user to create a budget for a subdivision of the remote site uses at least some of the numerical data and textual identifiers. The created budget is transmitted to the remote site. A budget projection system permits the user to import and view a prior budget for a subdivision of the remote site using at least some of the numerical data and textual identifiers. The user is permitted to enter a projection variable, and the system calculates a projected budget based upon the projection variable and the prior budget.
