reckon on
Factor into plans
To reckon on something is to expect it or count on it happening: We hadn't reckoned on the weather turning so quickly.
The phrase often appears in negative constructions when plans go awry—something you didn't reckon on disrupts your expectations.
It carries a slightly more deliberate sense than simply expecting, suggesting you've factored something into your calculations.
