Earned Value Management
Earned Value Management (or EVM) is designed to
- improve project planning and control
- help project teams ask the right questions, and
- make better decisions.
It clarifies project progress using realistic measures and provides objective cost and schedule forecasts to completion.
If you work on contracts with the US Government, UK and other Defence Departments and many suppliers or utilities organisations, you are likely to need to provide EVM information to support your contract. More and more organisations are recognising the benefits of EVM when working with partners or suppliers, but may not have the experience or capacity for full implementation.
