Earned Value Analysis
Earned Value Analysis 5
Evidences:
1. The Coding Team is on distress on cost of (-$35,000) and agenda (-$40,000). At the present rate of competence, the coding team is anticipated to be roughly about $136,000 over budget. And as a result, these can be changed.
2. On the other hand, the Development Team is also one of the team in in trouble because it has a CV of -$81,000 and it was expected to be roughly $117,000 over budget at finishing point or completion.
3. The Operating System deliverable is anticipated to be in the region of $101,000 over budget at completion.
4. The Utilities deliverable is predicted to be nearly $74,000 over budget at completion.
5. Provided that the project is approximately 43% complete and they are only receiving about $.83 of work for every actual dollar, there is chance to recover some predicted overrun.
6. The VAC is -$188,000 ($915,000 - $1,103,000).
