The Government Manager's Guide to Earned Value Management

By Charles I. Budd and Charlene S. Budd

This volume presents practical guidance for the government manager on earned value management (EVM), from basic calculations to how to find the most useful information online. Emphasis is on the relevant reports that contractors are required to submit to the federal government as part of their compliance with mandated EVM on projects. Because the data submitted on reports do not translate automatically into recommendations for actions to be taken, information is included on how to analyze and evaluate contractor reports. This book is a must-read for understanding EVM on government projects.

Contents: The Fundamentals of EVM • EVMS Metrics • Industry and Government Connections • EVM Implementation and Verification • Reporting, Compliance, and Oversight • Overview of the Integrated Program Management Report • An Introduction to IPMR Analysis • The 32 EVMS Criteria • Glossary of Acronyms and Key Terms
