Earned Value Management

At Scope-PM, our Earned Value Management (EVM) services offer a comprehensive approach to monitoring and controlling project performance. EVM integrates scope, schedule, and cost data, providing project managers with a clear, quantitative picture of project health and progress. By leveraging EVM, we empower our clients to make informed, data-driven decisions that keep their projects on track and within budget.

What is Earned Value Management?

EVM is a project management technique that combines scope, schedule, and cost to evaluate project performance and forecast its future trajectory. It goes beyond simple budget tracking by showing how much work has been completed and how it aligns with the planned schedule and budget. EVM offers insights that help project managers assess whether they are on track to meet project goals or if corrective actions are necessary.

Key Components of EVM

Understanding EVM begins with its core components, which provide the foundation for assessing project performance, From these components, we can derive several critical metrics that enable project managers to monitor and manage project.

This is the estimated cost of the work scheduled to be completed by a specific date. PV represents the amount of work planned up to that point in the project.

EV reflects the estimated cost of the actual work completed by a specific date. It provides a measure of project progress in terms of budgeted dollars.

AC is the actual expenditure incurred for the work completed by a specific date. This reflects the true cost spent on the project at any given time.

Essential EVM Metrics

  • Formula: CV = EV – AC
  • Purpose: Indicates whether the project is under or over budget. A positive CV means the project is under budget, while a negative CV indicates overspending.
  • Formula: SV = EV – PV
  • Purpose: Shows if the project is ahead of or behind schedule. A positive SV indicates that the project is ahead of schedule, whereas a negative SV signifies delays.
  • Formula: CPI = EV / AC
  • Purpose: Measures cost efficiency. A CPI greater than 1 indicates cost efficiency, meaning the project is under budget. Conversely, a CPI less than 1 means the project is over budget.
  • Formula: SPI = EV / PV
  • Purpose: Assesses schedule efficiency. An SPI greater than 1 indicates that the project is ahead of schedule, while an SPI less than 1 reveals that the project is behind schedule.
