Qualitative Approaches

Earned value analysis (EVA) is a well-known project management tool for monitoring and forecasting the project performance such as time and cost. Despite the benefits found in the manufacturing industry, EVA has not been widely implemented in the Malaysian construction industry. This study is aimed to determine the advantages of EVA over other project control methods, to determine the suitability of implementing EVA in construction projects, and to develop a working flowchart as a guide in implementing EVA. Accordingly, qualitative approaches including the structured interview survey and the flowchart development were employed in this study. Findings reveal that comparing to stochastic methods, Fuzzy logic model, and miscellaneous methods, the EVA has remarkable advantages in accuracy, flexibility, and adaptability for complexity. Malaysian government has decided to implement EVA to enhance the level of project management for the whole country. Hence, an EVA working flowchart was developed by the authors, through which more de- tailed project status could be monitored and more accurate future performance of the project could be forecasted. Santrauka Uždirbtos vertės analizė (UVA, angl. Earned Value Analysis, EVA) – paplitęs projektų valdymo įrankis, skirtas projekto efektyvumui, pavyzdžiui, laikui ir sąnaudoms, stebėti ir prognozuoti. Nors UVA nauda gamybos sektoriuje akivaizdi, Malaizijos statybų sektoriuje ji nėra plačiai taikoma. Šiuo tyrimu siekiama nustatyti UVA pranašumus prieš kitus projektų kontrolės metodus, nustatyti UVA tinkamumą statybų projektams ir sukurti darbinę srautų diagramą, kuri padėtų diegiant UVA. Taigi tyrime taikyti kokybiniai metodai, įskaitant apklausą, naudojant nustatytos struktūros pokalbius, ir srautų diagramos kūrimą. Išvados rodo, kad tikslumu, lankstumu ir pritaikymu sudėtingiems atvejams UVA yra gerokai prana- šesnė už stochastinius metodus, neraiškiosios logikos modelį ir įvairius kitus metodus. Malaizijos Vyriausybė nutarė įdiegti UVA, taip pagerindama projektų valdymą visoje šalyje. Dėl to autoriai sukūrė darbinę UVA srautų diagramą, kuri leidžia stebėti smulkesnius projekto būsenos aspektus ir tiksliau prognozuoti projekto efektyvumą ateityje.

Measure Project

The project management system has many tools and techniques to control projects' main elements schedule, cost, quality, risk, communications and procurements to attain project success and high performance. Earned value analysis (EVA) is the most effective tool to measure project performance which is widely used by many organisations such as Defence Acquisition University; National Aeronautics and Space Administration; Society of Cost Estimates and Analysis; and Project Management Institute (PMI)  to measure project performance and control it through cost and schedule,  which are illustrated into graphs to forecast the project results to be shared and reported to top management, stakeholders and client in regular basis taking into consideration the other factors such as risk management, project environment, quality, safety, control charts, and sustainability to attain highly performance. Proposed methodology in the presented paper to implement the integrated EVA in an effective and uncomplicated way to attain project success and high performance using an automated sheet to perform analysis for an anonymous hospital design project with the total duration of seven months and illustrates and summarises the key factors based on previous studies and project examples.

Problem Data

The Ariba Implementation at MED-X case is designed to teach students how to analyze a program that is experiencing problems and recommend solutions. Specifically, the case introduces students to earned value analysis and program oversight for an e-procurement technology program. The case centers on MED-X's need to quickly discover why the company's e-procurement implementation project was not going according to plan. Once a cause has been discovered, students will need to make a recommendation to fix the problem. Data for the simplified program, consisting of two concurrent projects, is given to students, who should in turn analyze the project using earned value analysis. The case is an easy introduction to program management and oversight for executives and MBA students, and teaches the essentials of earned value project management.Students will learn how to control and act in oversight of large complex programs, as well as how to apply earned value metrics to analyze a simplified program consisting of two projects. Analyzing the project enables students to learn the strengths and pitfalls of the earned value approach. From a management decision perspective, the case gives students the tools to succinctly answer the questions: How much will the project cost? How long will it take? What is wrong with the project?

Status Information

The focus of earned value management is the deviation ( schedule variance and cost deviation ) to determine the project, by determining the deviation monitor project status . Discussion earned value analysis methods use a combination of project management . Earned Value Analysis method as an effective project monitoring tools, you can maximize avoid state ( time and cost ) project-specific business and technical implementation of the project 's content and confused together, intuitively given project status information.
