Earned Value Management

management

Talking about management systems, earned value management is really of major importance. We first need to understand, what exactly is earned value management. It’s importance in our business sectors. And how we need to implement it for best outcomes and results for our business and it’s success.

Earned value management , can also be known as performance management is a worldwide known technique for performance measurement and progress in objective manner. It’s the ability to combine the measurements of three important factors. Scope , schedule and cost. When talking about a single integrated system, performance management or earned value management is usually able to provide accurate forecasts of project performance problems which is an important contribution towards your earned value management system.

The essential features of earned value management system includes:

1. A proper completely designed project plan that identifies work to be accomplished.

2. an evaluation of planned work , which is called planned value (PV) or budgeted cost of work performed (BCWP)

Most

Importantly

3. pre defined ”earning rules” (also known as metrics) to measure or quantify the accomplishment of work. Called earned value (EV) or budgeted cost of work performed(BCWP)

Earned value management implementations for large or complex projects include a number of features such as forecasts and indicators of cost performance (over budget or under budget) and schedule the performance , which may be behind schedule or ahead schedule.

Earned vale management originally emerged in US as a financial analysis in the 1960’s , but has since become a vital part in project management and cost engineering . implementation can be implemented to fit projects of all sizes and complexities. Research investigating the contribution of EVM to project suggests a moderately strong positive relationship.

Primavera earned value management helps organizations better manage project costs, measure earned value  and analyze budget , actual, forecast and performed costs. Without a comprehensive earned value performance, troubled projects can get out of control without the problem being recognized. With primavera earned value management , organizations can generate the statistically accurate estimates needed to understand and communicate project performance while there is still time to deal with  and address the issues.

Main features are:

1. monitor project performance using earned value management techniques.

2. calculate project costs using the direct and indirect costs per source.

3. accurately measure both cost and schedule performance.

4. track the differences between what was budgeted and how it was executed.

5. produce reports that comply with the U.S office management and budget (OMB) 300 directive.

The benefits that can be earned through earned value systems:

1. analyze and communicate the project performance data

2. increase program visibility through different factors like effective and stream lined communication with all stakeholders

3. systematically determine some factors, which may include

-> whether the project is behind the schedule

->ahead of schedule

->under budget

->over budget

This all can be done by analyzing the earned value KPI’s

It can nearly be impossible to build annual budgets that consider forecasted budget and program plans with detailed data of cost management and cost effectiveness. The more challenging part is uniting the actual program costs and actual program scheduled tasks. Oracle’s primavera project management’s earned value system’s gives the best solution in this regard.526

First Step in Schedule Development with Primavera P6 Development

While using Primavera P6, the scheduling process is divided into four main parts or steps:

Plan, update, review/ analyse and communicate.

In the first part we would focus on how to plan.

1. It is very important to understand the contract and requirements given by the customer. It is very important for the scheduler as it may help in scheduling the updates. The documents should be well versed and capable of outlining the frequency which may refer to updates versus revisions, earned value requirements, cost and resource status requirements. It may also refer to change management procedures. These documents require specific software to be used.

2. Regular updates should be taken, in order to effectively record project progress consideration. Internal policies of the company, budgeting constraints for the project at hand and usage of application are the few important factors responsible for schedule update occurrence. when you maintain your records more frequently, get data of the built programs or data which is based on required periodic performance updates helps to figure out things more accurately and the people working on projects can work more effectively. It establishes greater accuracy, promotes timely issues/resolutions.

It also helps in enhancing the user’s skills in the application and management of the project and provide the starting point to which it can get back when some error or exception occurs during the update process.

The thing which enhances the use of p6 functionality is an established time of week/ month etc regardless of update frequency. In which the usage of layouts and reporting tools as well as predefined filters helps you enhance the functionality. These filters are based on standard rolling date as well as the scheduling data dates.

3. Assign responsibility to each activity is a very useful approach. While planning the most important task is assigning roles and duties for effective outcomes and results as needed. Assigning roles also helps in measuring the performance of the tasks being assigned. These responsibilities are assigned using a simple tool known as activity code, it allows the scheduler to break down the task progress by the trade or crew or individual performance or responsibility for the work. Each party can review the progress and plan out the work accordingly to the near term activities. the scheduler also identifies the potential issues and eliminate risk based on performance factors.

Primavera P6 Scheduling

Activity codes are global, which may be across the enterprise or project which are specific to the individual only one activity code should be assigned to avoid corruption across one platform.

4. The term ”baseline” refers to the accepted as planned schedule submitted at project inception.

Primavera defines the baseline as a snapshot which helps in measuring the cost, schedule and performance. It can also refer to the time impact analysis etc. (for users having sound knowledge of P3, targets are synonyms of baseline in P6). Before starting a process a baseline or a target may be defined and a contract schedule should be established.
