چکیده
Earned Value Management Method (EVM), widely used in the world, is a project management method of costschedule integrated control. But the traditional EVM sometimes cannot provide an accurate result. In this paper, a practical method is given to analyze the project performance, in which the Network Diagram Method and the Critical Path Method have been introduced into EVM system that can better reflect the practical situation of a project. This improved method can be referred to assub-level earned value analysis method. This method can correct variance in the duration and cost forecast of the traditional EVM, and can also provide more information about the cause analysis.

متن کاملSelf-Starting Control Chart and Post Signal Diagnostics for Monitoring Project Earned Value Management Indices
Earned value management (EVM) is a well-known approach in a project control system which uses some indices to track schedule and cost performance of a project. In this paper, a new statistical framework based on self-starting monitoring and change point estimation is proposed to monitor correlated EVM indices which are usually auto-correlated over time and non-normally distributed. Also, a new ...

Earned Duration Management (EDM) method has been developed to enhance Earned Value Management and to solve some of its problems, such as separation of measuring time and cost dimensions. By providing performance indicators, this method makes it possible for managers to accurately measure the progress of a project and to calculate the time and cost required to complete it. Nevertheless, the acce...
