Project Artifact: Earned Value Analysis

Document Reference: PMO-06.05

This document provides a comprehensive, professional reference to understand the purpose and effective usage of the Earned Value Analysis in alignment with the Tasleemat framework.


1. What?

A quantitative management artifact calculating PV, EV, AC, variances (SV, CV), indices (SPI, CPI), and estimates at completion (EAC, TCPI).


2. Why?

Provides objective mathematical forecasting of final project cost and completion dates, avoiding optimistic bias.


3. When?

Calculated at regular reporting intervals throughout project execution and controlling.


4. Who?

Produced by Project Controller or Project Manager and reviewed by PMO and Executive Sponsors.


Tailoring Tips
