Project Setup for Earned Value Integration with Deltek Products
Many data elements in a project schedule can be shared with popular Earned Value Management Systems (EVMS) like Deltek Cobra™. Planned Value (PV or BCWS), for example can be taken from the Baseline values in a schedule. Likewise, Earned Value (EV or BCWP) can be derived from the completion or partial performance of scheduled tasks. Finally, the remaining work, cost and duration in a schedule is an excellent basis for the Estimate to Complete (ETC) in an EVMS. To ensure exact traceability between a project schedule and the EVMS, SSI’s Performance vs. Baseline tools includes Transaction and Import file generators for two popular Earned Value Management Systems.
