RE: "EV"
Hi Rachel
Thanks for your question. As we saw in the course a good starting point with Earned Value is to work with some straightforward numbers from your Project. For example:
Budgeted Cost of Work Scheduled (BCWS) - what we agreed we'd spend to complete the project
Budgeted Cost of Work Performed (BCWP) - what we agreed we'd pay for the work that's been completed
Actual Cost of Work Performed (ACWP) - what we really paid for the work completed.
With these figures we can do some simple analysis. For example Performance Indices can be calculated:
BCWP/ACWP = CPI or Cost Performance Index. If it's less than 1 the project is over spending
BCWP/BCWS = SPI or Schedule Performance Index. This time a result less than 1 means the project is behind schedule

Management Training tip:Task List or To Do ListDon't confuse yourself with too many tasks on a to do list. The Task List is all the things that require attention, whether by you or others, now or later. The To Do list is your immediate daily plan, and is a subset of your Task List. |
