Earned Value Management is a project control process based on a structured approach to planning, cost collection and performance measurement. It facilitates the integration of project scope, time and cost objectives and the establishment of a baseline plan for performance measurement. Earned Value Management concepts are included in the PMBOK and are tested on the Project Management Professional PMP Certification Exam. APMG UK also offers Earned Value Management Certification Exam which is a good qualification to have. The establishment of a Performance Measurement Baseline (PMB) is essential to conducting successful EVM and consists of:
- Defined scope and assumptions
- Activities scheduled in logical sequence
- Resources / costs (labour and materials)
