25 KPI's from 5 Simple Project Management Measurements
Earned Value Analysis (EVA) is a computational technique that uses 5 key measurements in a project to generate more than 25 KPI's. These KPI's will give the stakeholders answers to such questions: where are we in time? Where are we in actual costs? How much can we earn? They will cover questions about the performance of a project, its rates, indices and percentages. More importantly, EVA KPI's can analyze projects so that specific indices can be use to inform the management about the possibility of correcting schedules or costs to meet the original plans.
This course starts by explaining the 5 measurements and showing how EVA focuses on Earned Values EV, (often called Budgeted Cost of Work Performed (BCWP). This becomes the reference measure to compare planned values and actual costs.
The course proceeds to present the 25 KPI's grouped under 6 lectures, each with its own detailed explanation, examples and most with accompanying Excel workbooks showing how the calculations takes place.
The course does not require advanced pre-requisites. Plain arithmetic and some highschool algebra would be more than enough. As for Microsoft Excel, a working knowledge of this tool would be a great help to your manipulate that many workouts that are provided with the course.
