Earned Value Management - Scaling EVM From Simple To Advanced Implementations

Scaling EVM From Simple To Advanced Implementations

The foundational principle of EVM, mentioned above, does not depend on the size or complexity of the project. However, the implementations of EVM can vary significantly depending on the circumstances. In many cases, organizations establish an all-or-nothing threshold; projects above the threshold require a full-featured (complex) EVM system and projects below the threshold are exempted. Another approach that is gaining favor is to scale EVM implementation according to the project at hand and skill level of the project team.

Famous quotes containing the words simple and/or advanced:

    The ordinary literary man, even though he be an eminent historian, is ill-fitted to be a mentor in affairs of government. For ... things are for the most part very simple in books, and in practical life very complex.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    For such an advanced civilization as ours to be without images that are adequate to it is as serious a defect as being without memory.
    Werner Herzog (b. 1942)
