I typically have hard in market dates that I will back out from. Costs are associated with previous year actuals and any learnings applied.

Multiply total hours per person by a quarter for cushion
Agree with @DP1. Make sure your rounds of revisions in your timing is consistent with your SOW or MSA. If you don't have actuals to compare against to determine expected billable hours, ask the people who are working on it how long their portion will actually (realistically, not inflated) take them. Add 20% buffer.
@digital strategist Do you plan/ price out an extra quarter's worth of work in the budget? If so, sounds generous but smart to account for shifting deadlines.
