ctEVM Requirements - Excerpts of Interest

• 7120.5D:– (2) The Project's EVM approach is in-place by KDP C and implemented in Phase C through KDP E.– (4) As a minimum, EVM principles, as defined by ANSI/EIA-748, Earned Value Management Systems, apply from

KDP C through KDP E, if the project's life-cycle cost is at or greater than $20M.

• 7120.5E (draft):– 2.2.7 Programs, at the discretion of the MDAA, projects in phases C and D with a life cycle cost estimated to be

greater than $20 million and Phase E project modifications, enhancements, or upgrades with an estimated development cost greater than $20 million shall perform earned value management (EVM) with an EVM system that complies with the guidelines in ANSI/EIA-748, Standard for Earned Value Management Systems. Use of the NASA’s EVM capability and processes, will ensure compliance with the ANSI standard. This capability allows tailoring to match the individual needs of the program or project, while still meeting the ANSI-748 guidelines.

– 2.2.8 EVM system requirements shall be applied to applicable suppliers in accordance with the NASA Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Supplement 1834.201 and to in-house elements.

– 2.2.9 In accordance with the NASA Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Supplement 1834.201, EVM system requirements shall be applied to applicable suppliers and to in-house work elements. For contracts that require EVM, a Contract Performance Report (CPR), Integrated Master Schedule (IMS), and Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) are required deliverables and the appropriate data requirements descriptions (DRDs) included in the contract and/or agreement.

– 2.2.10    For projects requiring EVM, Mission Directorates shall conduct an pre-approval integrated baseline review as part of their preparations for KDP C to ensure that the project’s work is properly linked with its cost, schedule, and risk and that the systems are in place to conduct EVM.

What is the NASA EVM Capability?

• A common agency EVM capability/process that complies with the guidelines in ANSI/EIA-748 for in-house projects

• Documented with supporting handbooks, instructions, workarounds, etc.

• Tested through two pilot projects, Extra-vehicular Activities (EVA) and Ice, Clouds and Land Elevation Satellite (ICESat) II

• Approved by independent Peer Review Team with representation from each Mission Directorate and Center

• Reported to a senior level Agency Steering Committee represented by each Mission Directorate and Center

• Approved initial (phased) rollout by the Agency Project Management Council (APMC) in Dec. 2011– Space Launch System (SLS) - (MSFC)– ICESat II (GSFC)– Focus on EVM flow-down to contracts across the Agency

Overall Objective was to develop an Agency EVM capability that complies with the guidelines in ANSI/EIA-748 and test through two pilots, refine and finalize EVM process and documentation based on test results.

Why develop a common process?

NASA utilizes EVM data on contracts but lacks the capability to: (1) readily apply EVM on in-house development effort; and (2) integrate in-house and contracted EVM data for total project performance assessment.– CxP was in the process of building EVM capability but consistent center

processes do not exist– Centers are also in process of building capability but none are ANSI

compliant except JPL– Consistent roles and responsibilities between programs, projects and

centers do not exist to streamline EVM– NASA lacks an approach to coordinate necessary business system,

policy, and process changes

ctPhased Rollout - Contracts

• Contracts (1-2 yrs.) – Agency-wide1. Clarify NPR 7120 contract EVM requirements per NASA FAR Supplement (NFS) from

contract award2. Work with OP to refine/reinforce Agency process for flowing down EVM requirements to

development contracts that exceed $20M threshold 1. Strengthen Procurement Strategy Meetings (PSM)2. Implement a contracts checklist to include EVM requirements3. Utilize standard EVM DRDs4. Check for other control points to ensure consistent EVM flow-down of contractual

requirements and reporting cross Agency/Center/Projects3. House EVM data in centralized database for roll-up reporting capability, cost estimating,

software tools, etc. 4. Improve the data analysis used to make management decisions5. Implement EVM analysis training within APPEL for Agency implementation

• Improving and consistently flowing down the contractual EVM requirements corrects a number of the agency’s EVM issues

• In-house Projects (1-5 yrs.) – Phased by selected projects1. NPR 7120 requirement to comply with ANSI/EIA-748 guidelines

1. Point to EVM Capability process in NPR as agency standard2. HEO and SMD Senior managers agreed to initial Rollout to SLS (MSFC) and ICESat

II (GSFC)– By following the process other Centers could get involved with flow-down

requirements from SLS or ICESat II3. Slowly rollout to others as new projects are identified by MDs4. Goal is to eventually rollout to a project at each Center

2. Conduct surveys at projects and Centers to scope the support/tools needed for agency implementation

3. Tool support/setup4. Implementation/Training/Surveillance Support5. Mitigate remaining Risks during project implementations6. Continuous improvement - modify process/documentation as needed7. Center should develop the capability/tools/infrastructure to support its project’s EVM

implementation8. During implementation, it’s the projects and Centers ultimate responsibility for success9. It is the Center’s responsibility to develop or acquire the skills to repeat the process and

maintain compliance with the overarching requirements within the agency process

Summarized Remaining Risks During Rollout• Support organizations add-on overheads not linked to performance• Support contractors cost reporting at appropriate level to support

EVM– Cost over obligations– Contracts not owned by projects

• SAP restricted to seven WBS levels for EVM reporting• Lack of skilled PP&C competencies to support EVM• Technical WBS driven by financial WBS• Increased scope without associated budget/schedule

– Lack of disciplined agency work authorization process• Management Reserve and UFE confusion• Change Management/Culture/Training• Lack of EVM considerations from day 1 of project

• There are workarounds for all risks and all can be mitigated over time

7120.5d 7120.5 NID Proposed 7120.5EDescribe the program's EVMS if EVM requirements are levied at the program level

2.2.7 Programs, at the discretion of the MDAA, and projects in phases C and D (and project modifications, enhancements, or upgrades during Phase E) with a life cycle cost estimated to be greater than $20 million shall perform earned value management (EVM) with an EVM system that complies with the guidelines in ANSI/EIA-748, Standard for Earned Value Management Systems. This includes flowing down EVM system requirements to applicable suppliers.

2.2.7 Programs, at the discretion of the MDAA, projects in phases C and D with a life cycle cost estimated to be greater than $20 million and Phase E project modifications, enhancements, or upgrades with an estimated development cost greater than $20 million shall perform earned value management (EVM) with an EVM system that complies with the guidelines in ANSI/EIA-748, Standard for Earned Value Management Systems. Use of the NASA’s EVM capability and processes, will ensure compliance with the ANSI standard. This capability allows tailoring to match the individual needs of the program or project, while still meeting the ANSI-748 guidelines.

Describe the project's implementation of Earned Value Management (EVM). The following requirements apply: (1) The project's EVM approach is consistent with the participating Center's best practices.

2.2.8 Projects will conduct an integrated review of project baselines as part of their preparations for KDP C to ensure that the project‘s work is properly linked with its cost, schedule, and risk and that the systems are in place to conduct EVM.

2.2.8 EVM system requirements shall be applied to applicable suppliers in accordance with the NASA Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Supplement 1834.201 and to in-house work elements.

(2) The Project's EVM approach is in-place by KDP C and implemented in Phase C through KDP E.

2.2.9    For projects requiring EVM, Mission Directorates shall conduct an pre-approval integrated baseline review as part of their preparations for KDP C to ensure that the project’s work is properly linked with its cost, schedule, and risk and that the systems are in place to conduct EVM.

(3) Project EVM reporting begins within 60 days after the start of Phase C. 3.1 Describe the program‘s Earned Value Management System (EVMS), if EVM requirements are to be levied at the program level.

(4) As a minimum, EVM principles, as defined by ANSI/EIA-748, Earned Value Management Systems, apply from KDP C through KDP E, if the project's life-cycle cost is at or greater than $20M.

Describe the project‘s implementation of Earned Value Management (EVM) including:

(5) If the project's primary NASA Center has a fully validated Earned Value Management System (EVMS), the project uses that system rather than EVM principles.

(1) How the PMB will be developed and maintained for the project and how UFE will be established and controlled.

(6) For contracts and subcontracts, application of an EVMS is required as follows:

(2) The methods the project will use to authorize the work and to communicate changes for the scope, schedule, and budget of all suppliers. This plan is updated as make-buy decisions and agreements are made.

(i) For development or production (including flight and ground support) contracts and subcontracts valued at $20M or more, the contractor EVMS must comply with the guidelines in ANSI/EIA-748.

(3) The process to be used by the project to communicate the time-phased levels of funding that have been forecast to be made available to each supplier.

(ii) For development or production (including flight and ground support) contracts and subcontracts valued at $50M or more, the contractor EVMS has been formally determined compliant with ANSI/EIA-748 by the cognizant Federal contract management agency.

(4) For the class of suppliers not required to use EVM, the schedule and resource information required of the suppliers to establish and maintain a baseline and to quantify schedule and cost variances.

(iii) EVM is not required for grants, non-developmental level-of-effort engineering support services, steady-state operations, basic and applied research, and routine services such as janitorial services or grounds maintenance services; however, application is at the discretion of the Program/Project Manager.

(5) How the cost and schedule data from all partners/suppliers will be integrated to form a total project-level assessment of cost and schedule performance.

(iv) A Contract Performance Report (CPR), Integrated Master Schedule (IMS), WBS, and WBS dictionary are required whenever EVM is required on contracts and subcontracts. (v) In accordance with NFS Part 1834, require IBRs through Phase D for contracts requiring EVM. Schedule such reviews not later than 180 calendar days after contract award or the exercise of significant contract options, or not later than 60 calendar days after a significant funding or work scope realignment.

ctTop 5 Lessons Learned (linked to remaining risks)

28

1. Projects have to consider EVM Implementation from Day 1 of project1. Each time a charge code is created it effectively changes the

technical WBS for the life of the project2. Where will the work be controlled and performance taken?

EVM construct must be considered for control accounts and work packages.

2. Support Contractor costs will continue to be a constraint unless proper cost reporting requirements are flowed down to contracts• Support Contracts are often owned by other organizations

outside of the projects with no EVM requirements.3. Work Authorization agreements that document an agreement of

scope, schedule and budget by both sponsor and performing orgs. are fundamental to the implementation of EVM

4. PP&C skills must be strengthened to support EVM and project management

5. Senior Level Management support is needed across the agency with the change management process

ct • NASA Earned Value Management (EVM) System Description 1.Purpose: This document describes the NASA management system that will integrate the scope, schedule, and budget of a program or project for optimal planning and control of prime contracts and in-house work that can be used to ensure compliance with NASA’s EVM requirements (e.g., complies with the ANSI/EIA-748 guidelines). It is intended to establish a common project management process across all centers and Mission Directorates to facilitate adoption of best business practices, the application of timely and predictive analysis, and ultimately provide all stakeholders with greater insight into project performance.

• NASA Earned Value Management (EVM) Implementation Guide • Purpose: This handbook provides Earned Value Management (EVM) guidance for the effective application, implementation, and utilization of EVM on NASA programs, projects, major contracts and subcontracts in a consolidated reference document. This handbook was developed to serve as the central EVM guidance document for NASA personnel.• Content: Key components of NASA’s EVM policy addressed in this handbook include: Roles and Responsibilities, EVM Implementation on NASA Contracts (pre-award contract requirements (e.g., Data Requirement Descriptions, Statement of Work (SOW), contract type/incentives, etc.); EVM Implementation on NASA in-house Programs/Projects and EVM System (EVMS) Acceptance and Surveillance Processes. NASA EVM best practices and lessons learned are also included.

• NASA Project Control Account Manager (P-CAM) Handbook 1.Purpose: This handbook is intended to be a quick reference for a P‑CAM or technical manager empowered with a project’s cost, schedule, and technical responsibilities where EVM is required. The overall objective is to support the P‑CAMs in performing their responsibilities as they relate to EVM.

• NASA Integrated Baseline Review (IBR) Handbook (NASA/SP-2010-3406)1.Purpose: This handbook is intended to be a how-to guide to prepare for, conduct, and close-out an IBR. 2.Content: The guide describes the steps that should be considered for the IBR, offers tips for tailoring the IBR based on risk, cost, and need for management insight. Appendices to the guide contain samples of documentation typically used in connection with the IBR.

• NASA Schedule Management Handbook (NASA/SP-2010-3403)1.Purpose: The purpose of this handbook is to provide the framework for time-phasing, resource planning, coordination, and communicating the necessary tasks within a work effort. The intent is to improve schedule management by providing recommended concepts, processes, and techniques used within the Agency and industry. 2.Content: Describe the schedule management approach and best practices for developing and maintaining an integrated master schedule. Includes schedule tool considerations, pre-schedule development activities, development of the IMS, status updates and maintenance, schedule assessment and analysis, schedule control and lessons learned.

• NASA Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) Handbook (NASA/SP-2010-3404)1.Purpose: Provide WBS development guidance for the Agency to include government partners, international partners and contractors to extent required by their contracts.
