Earned Value Management

As a project management professional, it is critical to know the answers to questions such as: is work being accomplished as planned, is it costing as planned, and what is the remaining work likely to cost? While identifying issues such as these is critical to a projects success, it is even more critical as a project manager to be able to identify where the problems are occurring, how critical the problems are, and what it will take to get the project back on track.
This is where earned value management (EVM) methodology can fill a vital need.

The methodology incorporates project scope, schedule and costs, and the process is applicable across many knowledge areas and process groups
