KEY DIFFERENCES BETWEEN EVM & EVA

EARNED VALUE MANAGEMENT (EVM) EARNED VALUE ANALYSIS (EVA)

Quantitative technique used to evaluate project
Is a method that combines cost, schedule, technical
performance:
scope, and risk aspects within EVA:
 analyzing schedule and cost variances.
 to gauge the actual progress of work
 Permits the project to be measured by progress
accomplished in a project.

 uses EVA as one of its tools but is larger in scope.
 Measure amount of actual work performed on a
 uses EVA data in trends analysis and forecasting
project beyond the basic review of cost and
schedule reports.

Earned Value (EV) also defined as the Budgeted Cost of Worked Performed (BCWP) helps to
compute Performance Indices of a Project (Cost and Schedule Performance Indexes)

KEY DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CPI & SPI

COST PERFORMANCE INDEX (CPI) SCHEDULE PERFORMANCE INDEX (SPI):

 Indicator of cost efficiency  Indicator of schedule efficiency

 The ratio of Earned Value to Actual Cost  The ratio of Earned Value to Planned Value
 It states extra or fewer expenditure  States lag or ahead in time

 A ratio less than one indicates excess  A ratio of less than one indicates the project
spending, and greater than one indicates is lagging. In contrast, greater than one
better utilization of money. indicates more work done in the scheduled

1. What is the other definition of Earned Value (EV)?

2. What is the quantitative technique used to evaluate project performances by analyzing

schedule and cost estimates?

3. Imagine that the project you are handling is starting to fall behind schedule or exceed the project’s budget.
What actions would you take?
o Conduct a thorough analysis to identify the root cause of the delays or budget overruns.
o Communicate with the team and stakeholders to discuss possible solutions and implement corrective
actions immediately.
o All of the above

4. What is SPI and CPI in Earned Value Analysis?

5. How do you prioritize the necessary tasks of a project?

o Prioritize tasks based on their impact on the project’s critical path, deadlines, and dependencies.
o Use of project management tools/software to keep track of priority tasks.
o All of the above
