E-Business Suite Releases 11i10 FP-M RUP4 to 12.1.2AbstractIntroduced in the 1960's Earned Value Management (EVM) has rapidly become the de facto standard in measuring the progress or overall health of a project. Instead of monitoring single dimensioned attributes (e.g., budgeted cost vs. actual cost) Earned Value Management combines the scope, schedule and cost objectives of a project to provide an integrated and accurate assessment of the overall health of a project. This methodology allows project managers to track the amount of work that had been planned with what was accomplished and actually spent to determine whether the cost and schedule are progressing as planned. With the release of Oracle Projects Family Pack M you can now manage projects using Earned Value Management principles and leverage some of the robust functionality within the Oracle Projects suite. This paper discusses the various configuration options and processes that can be leveraged to meet the new DoD EVMS standards. Request Paper |
