This project is too important: you need to keep a good handle on it to ensure the team doesn't squander their hours away. Take an in-depth look at each step involved in estimating time and resources, and estimating costs for budgeting and scheduling a project. Study the metrics that need to be in place and how to track performance during the projects execution.
