Introduction

The management of technical projects is becoming a challenge to professional engineers in an increasingly competitive marketplace in which effective project planning and control approach in compliance with clients’ contractual requirements.  Successful project managers demand that their projects meet technical objectives and be completed on schedule and within budget. To ensure success, an effective project control system must be designed, developed, and implemented to provide management with timely and accurate information on deviations of cost and time parameters from the target objectives established during the planning cycle of the project.

Earned Value Management (EVM) is a project planning and control approach that provides cost and schedule performance measurements. It compares the actual accomplishment of scheduled work and associated cost against an integrated schedule and budget plan. Its benefits include visibility into the true progress of the project work against the budget, projections of anticipated project schedule and cost trends, and the ability to take timely corrective actions for undesired variances. EVM is considered to be one of the most powerful and productive concepts utilized in managing today’s complex projects in private, commercial, or government environments.

Conference Objectives of Earned Value Management

  • Obtain knowledge in understanding and using an effective performance management system in managing technical projects effectively
  • Manage projects using a proven, effective performance measurement technique
  • Work with clients to define project objectives and develop a project plan and put it into action
  • Make project decisions concerning scope, cost and schedule parameters faster, more effectively and more confidently
  • Stay on top of schedules, budgets, workloads and human resources issues and delegate practically and fairly
  • Learn to avoid the pitfalls of project management by quickly identifying potential project risks and mitigate them as early as possible

Conference Summary of Earned Value Management

This training session is designed for those who want to learn the principles of EVM used for project performance measurement, a proven method to evaluate project work progress in order to identify early potential schedule slippage and areas of budget overruns.  It provides practical coverage of an accurate and realistic reflection of the integrated scope, cost and schedule parameters of a project to assist both contractors and client management in the decision-making process.
