Earned Value (EV) : work

doneActual Cost

(AC) : resources

How to work with an EVM project

• Already done by Tiia• Write access on your workunits

Project definition

• Progress report screen• Every first Monday of the month, an email requiring progress reporting• If delay in progress reporting (no report in the last 4 weeks), a reminder is sent on

Monday of each week• If no progress, report it

Progress reporting by workunit holders

• Chart at the workunit level• Chart for the whole project• Crosstab on the whole project
