Scenario Example
Purchasing & Installing Web Server
Duration 1 week, Budget $10,000.
PV Planned Value for that activity for that week = $10,000
AC Actual Cost suppose it actually took 2 weeks and cost
$20,000. Assume $15,000 were incurred in week 1, and $5,000
in week 2. These costs are the actual costs for that activity
each week
EV Earned Value earned value after one week is $7,500.
(10,000 * 75%)

Review
Project monitoring system include; data collection; analysis and
reporting.
Project control steps include; baseline plan, progress measurement,
comparing actual against projected plan, and actions.
Performance can be monitored using tools such as; tracking Gantts,
control charts, baseline plans and earned value management.
Earned value management (EVM) is a technique which incorporated
scope, time and cost data to determine the health of the project.
Integrated Cost/Schedule systems are developed creating; WBS,
work/resource schedules, budget, and EVM.
Project baselines are an anchor point for measuring performance.
