Q

A measure of schedule efficiency expressed as the ratio of earned value to planned value. A value less than 1.0 indicates less work was completed than was planed. A value greater than 1.0 indicates more work was completed than was planned.

A

Q

A measure of the cost efficiency of budgeted resources expressed as a ratio of earned value to actual cost. A value of less than 1.0 indicates a cost overrun for work completed. A value greater than 1/0 indicates a cost underrun of performance to date.

A

Cost Performance Index (CPI = EV/AC)

Q

The measure of the cost performance based on the BAC that is required to be achieved with the remaining resources in order to meet a specific management goal, expressed as the ration of the cost to finish the outstanding work to the remaining budget. The efficiency that must be maintained in order to complete on plan.

<1=Easier to complete; 1=Same to complete; >1=Harder to complete

A

To-Complete Performance Index

TCPI = (BAC - EV) / (BAC - AC

Q

The measure of the cost performance that is required to be achieved with the remaining resources in order to meet a specific management goal, expressed as the ration of the cost to finish the outstanding work to the remaining budget. The efficiency must be maintained in order to complete the current EAC.

<1=Easier to complete; 1=Same to complete; >1=Harder to complete
