Navigating the Complex World of Earned Value Management Adjustments: Rebaselining, Replanning, Reprogramming, and the Use of Single-Point-Adjustments (SPAs) 🛠️ Earned Value Management (EVM) provides critical data about project performance. However, when deviations occur, it may be necessary to make adjustments. 📉 This post will discuss common adjustment methods: Rebaselining, Replanning, Reprogramming, and the use of Single-Point-Adjustments (SPAs). Rebaselining 📈 Rebaselining is typically used when variances in the project have become so significant that they render the current baseline ineffective for meaningful performance measurement. The new baseline can align Planned Value with Earned Value, or in some cases, align all three: Planned Value, Earned Value, and Actual Cost to reset variances. Replanning 📋 Replanning involves redistributing the budget for future work without changing the overall budget. The impact on funding requirements should be carefully considered, while maintaining traceability to previous baseline. Reprogramming 🔁 Reprogramming is an extensive replanning effort that results in a new performance measurement baseline (PMB), often involving Over Target Baselines (OTB) and/or Over Target Schedules (OTS). Approval from the customer are typically required. The Use of Single-Point-Adjustments (SPAs) ⚙️ SPAs adjust Earned Value metrics and are used during rebaselines. PV=EV=AC: Used to eliminate both cost and schedule variances. PV=EV: Used primarily to eliminate schedule variance, leaving cost variance untouched.

I have been quietly working on a project these past 6 months... It's called Contracts Connected and here’s a snapshot of our journey so far: I took a user-guided approach to our product road map and have sat down to talk with over 50 growing general contractors. I found a few common threads in all these conversations: 1. Streamlined Subcontract Management Managing numerous subcontracts and extensive paperwork was a major pain point. Contracts Connected drastically reduces the time spent on contract creation and compliance management, allowing contractors to focus on their core operations. 2. Enhanced Integration While tools like ProCore are widely used, they often lack automation in contract negotiations and compliance tracking. Contracts Connected seamlessly integrates with existing project management tools, filling these critical gaps. 3. Unified Contract Handling State-specific contracts and sophisticated subcontractor requirements demand a robust system. Contracts Connected offers a unified, adaptable platform that simplifies complex contract management. What’s Next? We’re focused on: - Automation: Streamlining processes from contract creation to compliance tracking. - Integration: Ensuring Contracts Connected works seamlessly with existing tools. - User Feedback: Continuously improving based on real-world needs and insights. Moving Forward We’re just getting started. Contracts Connected is set to revolutionize contract management in construction, driving efficiency and reducing administrative burdens. Stay tuned for more updates. Together, we’re building a better future for the construction industry. #GeneralContractor #ConstructionLeadership #Construction #ConstructionIndustry #ConstructionSoftware

To manage and control delivery to achieve agreed outcomes, to schedule, and within the defined budget, the various operating structures that represent each of these components must be aligned. Whether this is via a hardwired solution or a mapping between domains, it is crucial that they are defined and synchronised as early as possible in the lifecycle. This article (https://lnkd.in/eV3bMmmZ) describes the basics of data structure alignment in the context of an integrated project controls solution. #We_are_adept #projectcontrols #PMO #designmanagement Flow www.adeptmanagement.com Adept Management Limited

How is your Project Information Management looking?

Sequencing activities: - What are sequencing activities? Sequence Activities is the process of identifying and documenting relationships among the project activities. So, the main purpose of the sequence activities process is to finalize the interrelationship of activities to complete the project scope and reach the project goals. What is activity sequencing in project management? In project management, activity sequencing is the process of identifying and scheduling the individual activities that make up a project. Sequencing activities logically ensures that all the necessary steps happen correctly and helps you optimize resources efficiently. How to sequence project activities: - Task Identification Define activity attributes Identify constraints Dependency Recognition Prioritization Logical Order Network Diagram Critical Path Analysis Resource Consideration Scheduling Review and Adjust Tools to Sequence Activities: Finish-to-Start (FS) Start-to-Start (SS) Start-to-Finish (SF) Finish-to-Finish (FF) Sequence Activities Using Dependency Determination: Project activities may also have following four attributes which helps to sequence activities. Mandatory Dependencies Discretionary Dependencies External Dependencies Internal Dependencies Tools & techniques: - 1. precedence diagramming method (PDM). 2. Dependency determination and integration. 3. Leads and lags. 4. Project management information system. (PMIS). #projectmanagement #projectcontrol #projectplanning
