Earned Value Management Solutions for e-Government

The U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) requires agencies in the federal executive branch to establish and implement a documented agency policy for using Earned Value Management (EVM) and performing operational analyses for major information technology (IT) investments. This is part of the Expanded Electronic Government initiative in the President's Management Agenda.

Successful EVM Experience in Department-Wide Support

Jim Kendrick, president of the P2C2 Group, served as the principal consultant for implementing an enterprise-wide EVMS solution for a Cabinet-level Department. In support of the Earned Value solution, Kendrick prepared an EVMS requirements analysis, a gap analysis to determine alignment with the 32 criteria of Standard 748, a cost benefits and alternatives analysis, COTS software recommendations, a project management plan, a Plan of Action & Milestones (POA&M), a User Guide, a draft policy memorandum, a determination of EVMS requirements for the to-be core financial system, and an evaluation of the initial rollout. The policy included required guidance for contract language, provided by the Department's Chief Procurement Executive. Kendrick participated in the initial rollout of the Earned Value Management System using a combination of MS Project, wInsight, and eCPIC COTS software. However, COTS solutions are customizable to the unique environment and business practices of each federal department. Ongoing Earned Value Management support was provided by the prime contractor, Cornet Technology.

Quotes:

"EVMS is an adult approach to project management."

"The 32 criteria of the Earned Value standard are based on the principles of sound enterprise management. The Earned Value criteria cover policy, sound planning, budgeting, financial management, competent project management, accountability, and responsive management information."

"Earned Value Management requires the commitment and involvement of enterprise leadership. That is the only way to deploy Earned Value strategically as a part of the capital programming process."
