Cost Performance Index (CPI)
CPI=EV/AC(Hint: Index is something divided by something)< 1 Over budget= 1 On budget> 1 Under budget
To-Complete Performance Index (TCPI) (Using EAC)
TCPI=(BAC-EV)/(EAC-AC)(Hint: What’s left to do divided by predicted amount of cash left)< 1 Under budget= 1 On budget> 1 Over budget
Earned Value (EV)
EV=% complete x BAC
Float/Slack
LS-ESLS = Late startES = Early startLF – EFLF = Late finishEF = Early finish= 0 On critical path< 0 Behind schedule
Estimate at Complete (EAC)
EAC=BAC/CPI(Hint: Account for pennies lost on the dollar)
To-Complete Performance Index (TCPI) (Using BAC)
TCPI=(BAC-EV)/(BAC-AC)(Hint: What’s left to do divided by what cash is left)< 1 Under budget= 1 On budget> 1 Over budget
Standard Deviation
(P-O)/6O= Optimistic estimateP= Pessimistic estimate
Variance at Completion (VAC)
VAC=BAC-EAC< 0 Over budget= 0 On budget> 0 Under budget
Estimate to Complete (ETC)
ETC=EAC-AC(Hint: How much more do you need?)
PERT Estimation
(O+4M+P)/6O= Optimistic estimateM= Most Likely estimateP= Pessimistic estimate
Schedule Variance (SV)
SV=EV-PV(Hint: Variance is something minus something)< 0 Behind schedule= 0 On schedule> 0 Ahead of schedule
Planned Value (PV)
PV=% planned completion (Hint: someone always had to tell you where you are int he project)
Cost Variance (CV)
CV=EV-AC(Hint: EV always comes first)< 0 Over budget= 0 On budget> 0 Within budget
Schedule Performance Variance (SPI)
SPI=EV/PV(Hint: Schedule always uses planned value. Costs are always actual costs)< 1 behind schedule= 1 on schedule> 1 ahead of schedule
Five EVM Rules to Memorize
- Always start with earned value.
- Variance means subtraction.
- Indexes are “something” divided by “something” and they show
performance for the project objectives. - When it comes to any index, the closer to 1 the better.
- Variances can be positive or negative.
Communication channels formula
N(N-1)/2, where N represents the number of stakeholders
