About this ebook
This completely revised and updated guide to earned value (EV) project management is the go-to choice for both corporate and government professionals. A Practical Guide to Earned Value Project Management, Second Edition, first offers a general overview of basic project management best practices and then delves into detailed information on EV metrics and criteria, EV reporting mechanisms, and the 32 criteria of earned value management systems (EVMS) promulgated by the American National Standards Institute and the Electronic Industries Alliance and adopted by the Department of Defense.
This second edition includes new material on:
EV metrics
Implementing EVMS
Government contracts
Time-based earned schedule metrics
Critical chain methodologies
In addition to this new material, authors Charles and Charlene Budd have reorganized some existing material to enhance readability while retaining the same trusted and comprehensive approach as the first edition. They offer insights into the mechanics of EVMS for a thorough understanding of the processes and a practical presentation of how to best implement EVMS practices.
