Integration is key to accurate and timely EVA

To achieve a proper Earned Value Analysis, you must know two things: 1) are we on time; and 2) are we on budget? For most companies, these are calculated in different systems completely unrelated to each other, causing delays, errors and efficiencies in calculating EVA.

Adeaca PBA provides all prerequisites for Earned Value Management in a single integrated system. This ensures not only that that earned value data is readily available but also that the EVM data is generated by and maintained within transparent, auditable and managed processes.

EVA Timeline

Time-phased approach

In Adeaca PBA™, the cost budget is time-phased as part of the estimation process. This is done either by applying the scheduled timeline from the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) or by assigning dates and distribution curves to budget positions against the Costs Breakdown Structure (CBS).

EVA data source

Single source of truth

Because Adeaca PBA is a single integrated solution used for financial as well as operational project management, costs are recorded directly against the native CBS and can be directly incorporated into EVA computations without translating, mapping, importing or otherwise manipulating the data.

EVA trend analysis

Trending & forecasting built in

Progress is continually monitored across a range of financial and operational indicators. The recorded progress is locked down as part of the month-end process which forms the basis of earned value calculations. The EVA dataset is completely embedded in the general project costing data and stored for future analysis and to serve as the basis for trend analysis.

Out-of-the-box support for Earned Value Management

In Adeaca PBA, CBS levels for earned value are user defined which means that even complex projects can be configured to be driven by only a handful of EVA accounts. This provides Earned Value Analysis performance metrics with minimum efforts required and is an excellent route for companies get started with EVA without completely up ending their business processes to support EVA.

Easily configurable for your business

Likewise, the support for multiple EVA principles (or “earning rules”) means that clients can configure earned value to be computed based on progress indicators with which they are comfortable and are able to effectively track and maintain.

Project Business Requirements Template

The most comprehensive business system requirements document for project-driven processes.

400+ criteria you can use immediately to evaluate any business system for its Project Business capabilities.

Native support for EVA fundamentals

The base EVA configuration is done against the CBS. The configuration includes a definition of the CBS level at which earned value is computed and which EVA principles are used to drive earned value computations. Supported EVA principles include:

  • Estimate at Completion (EAC)
  • Completed work
  • Deliverables
  • Production units
  • Physical inspection
