What is Burn Rate?

Burn rate typically refers to the rate at which a project’s resources and budget are used up over its course. Larger projects have higher burn rates because they need more resources to complete activities on a day-to-day basis. It is a metric that can be useful in indicating when a project goes out of scope.
