πŸ— EVM & Resources

This screen enables you to:

 

  1. Track progress and performance by Earned Value Management metrics
  2. Track progress by units (Daily, S-curve)
  3. Track progress by physical progress. 

Track progress by EVM Metrics

By using the WBS navigation tree on the left, you can check EVM KPIs throughout your project's work breakdown structure. From the overall project down to a singular activity. You can then utilise the chart on the right to narrow down even more by targeting a specific resource. 

The metrics offers are: 

  • Earned Value (EV)
  • Actual Cost (AC) 
  • Planned Value (PV)
  • Schedule Performance Index (SPI) = EV/PV
  • Cost Performance Index (CPI) = A/PV
  • Actual Cost (AC) = Cost of the project so far
  • Estimate to Complete (ETC) = expected cost to finish remainder of project
  • Estimated at Completion Cost (AC + ETC): Total expected cost for 100% of the project
  • Budget at completion BAC: Estimation what the cost will be at completion
  • Variance at completion  VAC = BAC - EAC : How much the cost will differ at the end
  • To Complete Performance Index  (TCPI) 

Track progress by Units, Daily

By switching into the Units mode and by enabling the daily view, one can see how many resources they are using daily and if they are over-budget. You can narrow down your research by selecting a single resource from the dropdown. 

Each bar represents a day:

  1. The part of the bar which is blue reports resource utilisation within the budget for that day
  2. The grey part stands for unused budget for that resource/s.
  3. The red part the amount of utilisation which went over budget for that day

Track progress by Units, S-Curve

By clicking on Cumulative you see the S-Curve of both baseline's and the currently selected schedule's cumulative progress units wise. 

 

 

Track physical Progress and EVM KPIs

The WBS navigation tree is accompanied with a really informative table. Within this table you can see for each WBS and activity

  1. units progress
  2. physical progress
  3. SPI (at the data date)
  4. CPI (at the data date)
  5. Number of resources contained
  6. Whether any of its contained resources has gone over-budget at least for a single day.

Seach Bar

By utilising the search bar at the top of the page one can narrow down the WBS tree to containing entries related only to a specific search element of choice. That can be:

  1. A WBS
  2. An activity
  3. A material
  4. Equipment
  5. Labor
