WhereWe Are NowWhereWe Are Now
Monitoring progress & performance is the most neglected function in projects Control is basically measuring actual situation against plansWhen not monitored, projects may get delayed and over the budget

Structure of a Project MonitoringStructure of a Project MonitoringInformation SystemInformation System
Creating a project monitoring systeminvolves determining:
What data to collect Time, Cost, Resource.
How, when, and who will collect the data
How to analyze the data
How to report current progress to management
Actual Time Planned Time
Actual Costs Budget Costs
Resource Usage Planned Resource

Project Monitoring Information SystemProject Monitoring Information System
Information System StructureWhat data are collected?
Current status of project (schedule and cost)
Remaining cost to compete project. Budget remaining
Date that project will be complete
Potential problems to be addressed now
Out-of-control activities requiring intervention
Cost and/or schedule overruns and the reasons for them Forecast of overruns at time of project completion

Collecting data and analysis
Who will collect project data? PM, Member, Contractor?
How will data be collected? Normally thru MIS
When will the data be collected? Weekly, Milestones
Who will compile and analyze the data? Normally PM
Reports and reporting
Who will receive the reports? Eg. Snr Management How will the reports be transmitted? Email, Memo
When will the reports be distributed? Management first, thencustomer

The Project Control ProcessThe Project Control Process
Control The process of comparing actual performance against plan to
identify deviations, evaluate courses of action, and takeappropriate corrective action.
Project Control Steps1. Setting a baseline plan. Cost from WBS, Time from Network Diag.
2. Measuring progress and performance. Costs & works completed now
3. Comparing plan against actual. Extent of the deviation
4. Taking action. Bringing costs & time back to track according to planned
Tools Tracking and baseline Gantt charts
Control charts

Disparity Among Monitoring SystemsDisparity Among Monitoring Systems
Time-Phase Baseline PlanCorrects the failure of most monitoring systems to
connect a projects actual performance to its scheduleand forecast budget.
Systems that measure only cost variances do not identifyresource and project cost problems associated with fallingbehind or progressing ahead of schedule.
Earned Value Cost/Schedule System
An integrated project management system based onthe earned value concept that uses a time-phasedbudget baseline to compare actual and plannedschedule and costs.

Glossary of TermsGlossary of Terms
TABLE 13.1
EV Earned value for a task is simply the percent complete times its original budget. Stated differently,EV is the percent of the original budget that has been earned by actual work completed.
PV The planned time-phased baseline of the value of the work scheduled. An approved cost estimateof the resources scheduled in a time-phased cumulative baseline [BCWSbudgeted cost of the
work scheduled].
AC Actual cost of the work completed. The sum of the costs incurred in accomplishing work.[ACWPactual cost of the work performed].
CV Cost variance is the difference between the earned value and the actual costs for the workcompleted to date where CV = EV AC.
SV Schedule variance is the difference between the earned value and the baseline line to date whereSV = EV PV.
BAC Budgeted cost at completion. Total budgeted cost of the baseline or project cost accounts.
EAC Estimated cost at completion.
ETC Estimated cost to complete remaining work.
VAC Cost variance at completion. VAC indicates expected actual over- or under-run cost at completion.

Developing an Integrated Cost/Schedule SystemDeveloping an Integrated Cost/Schedule System
1. Define the work using a WBS.a. Scope
b. Work packages
c. Deliverables
d. Organization units
e. Resources
f. Budgets
2. Develop work andresource schedules.
a. Schedule resourcesto activities
b. Time-phase work packagesinto a network
3. Develop a time-phasedbudget using work packagesincluded in an activity.
Accumulate budgets (PV).
4. At the work package level,
collect the actual costs forthe work performed (AC).Multiply percent completetimes original budget (EV).`
5. Compute the schedule
variance (EV-PV) and thecost variance (EV-AC).

Development of Project BaselinesDevelopment of Project Baselines
Purposes of a Baseline (PV)An anchor point for measuring performance
A planned cost and expected schedule againstwhich actual cost and schedule are measured.
A basis for cash flows and awarding progress payments.
A summation of time-phased budgets (cost accounts assummed work packages) along a project timeline.
What Costs Are Included in Baselines?
Labor, equipment, materials, project direct overheadcosts (DOC)

Rules for Placing Costs in BaselinesCosts are placed exactly as they are expected to be
earned in order to track them to their point of origin.
Percent Complete Rule
Costs are periodically assigned to a baseline as units of workare completed over the duration of a work package.

Comparing Earned ValueWith the expected schedule value.
With the actual costs.
Assessing Status of a Project
Required data elements
Data Budgeted cost of the work scheduled (PV)
Budgeted cost of the work completed (EV)
Actual cost of the work completed (AC)
Calculate schedule and cost variances A positive variance indicates a desirable condition,
while a negative variance suggests problems orchanges that have taken place.

Methods of Variance AnalysisMethods of Variance Analysis
Cost Variance (CV)Indicates if the work accomplished using labor
and materials costs more or less than wasplanned at any point in the project.
Schedule Variance (SV)Presents an overall assessment in dollar terms
of the progress of all work packages in the projectscheduled to date.

Developing A Status Report:Developing A Status Report:A Hypothetical ExampleA Hypothetical Example
Assumptions
Each cost account has only one work package, and
each
cost account will be represented as an activityon the network.
The project network early start times will serve asthe basis for assigning the baseline values.
From the moment work an activity begins, someactual costs will be incurred each period until the
activity is completed.

Indexes to Monitor ProgressIndexes to Monitor Progress
Performance IndexesCost Performance Index (CPI)
Measures the cost efficiency of work accomplished to date.
CPI = EV/AC
Scheduling Performance Index (SPI) Measures scheduling efficiency
SPI = EV/PV
Percent Complete Indexes
Indicates how much of the work accomplished represents ofthe total budgeted (BAC) and actual (AC) dollars to date.
PCIB = EV/BAC
PCIC = AC/EAC
CPI = EV / AC = $170/$200 = 0.85
SPI = EV / PV = $170/$250 = 0.68

Additional Earned Value RulesAdditional Earned Value Rules
Rules applied to short-duration activities and/orsmall-cost activities
0/100 percent rule
Assumes 100 % of budget credit is earned at once and only
when the work is completed.
50/50 rule
Allows for 50% of the value of the work package budget tobe earned when it is started and 50% to be earned when thepackage is completed.
Percent complete with weighted monitoring gates
Uses subjective estimated percent complete in combinationwith hard, tangible monitoring points.
