Dear PM Advisor,

How would you define and measure EVM?

Dear Hugo,

That's a quick question with a long answer.

I define Earned Value Management as the only objective way of measuring that you get what you pay for. It is an objective way of determining true project % complete because it uses baseline costs to give you credit for completion of tasks.

Here is a link to the method I use to measure EVM:

Good luck,
