WHAT WE PROVIDE

What we provide

Solvix International provides Earned Value Management (EVM) services for clients that need a clearer, more measurable view of project performance. We integrate baseline scope, time-phased budget, progress measurement, and actual cost data to show whether the project is delivering value at the rate originally planned and what that means for likely final outcomes.

SERVICE SCOPE

What this service covers

Our EVM service can be used as a full implementation, a health check of an existing reporting system, or a targeted support engagement where cost and schedule data need stronger analytical discipline.

WHY EVM MATTERS

Why earned value management matters

Traditional schedule updates and cost reports can show that a project is late or overspent, but they do not always explain whether the value of completed work is keeping pace with plan. EVM addresses that gap by connecting scope, time, and cost in one measurement framework. It helps leadership understand not just what has been spent, but what has actually been achieved for that spend and what the trajectory suggests for completion.

Typical management questions EVM can answer :

Key Earned Value Metrics

 The indicators that turn baseline data and actual performance into decision-ready project intelligence

Planned Value (PV)

Budgeted value of work scheduled to be completed by a reporting date.

Earned Value (EV)

Budgeted value of the work actually performed based on measured progress.

Actual Cost (AC)

Real cost incurred for the work completed during the reporting period.

Cost Performance Index (CPI)

EV ÷ AC. Measures cost efficiency and overspend or underspend trend.

Schedule Performance Index (SPI)

EV ÷ PV. Measures how efficiently the project is progressing against plan.

Forecasts (EAC / ETC / VAC)

Estimate final cost, remaining cost, and expected variance at completion.

IMPLEMENTATION APPROACH

How we implement EVM

The exact method depends on contract form, data maturity, project phase, and reporting audience. However, the core implementation logic remains consistent: create a reliable baseline, define how value is earned, capture actual performance accurately, and then issue metrics and forecasts that management can trust.

1. Baseline and coding review:

assess WBS logic, cost-code mapping, budget loading, reporting calendar, and control-account structure.

2. Progress-measurement rules:

define how each work package earns value, including quantities, milestones, weighted steps, or physical progress rules.

3. Actual-cost capture:

align committed cost, actual cost, accruals, and cost timing so the reporting period reflects the real expenditure position.

4. Calculation and validation:

update EV, PV, AC, variances, indices, and forecast fields, while checking for distortion or data inconsistency.

5. Interpretation and action planning:

translate the metrics into management insight, root-cause review, and recommended corrective actions.

DATA AND OUTPUTS

Inputs, deliverables, and reporting outputs

Strong EVM depends on disciplined source data and a reporting structure that decision-makers can actually use. Solvix works with the client’s live controls environment, identifies data gaps, and develops outputs that are practical for management, governance, lenders, delivery partners, and, where relevant, dispute-sensitive review.

Typical inputs reviewed

  • Approved baseline schedule and milestones
  • Control budget, cost codes, and cash flow structure
  • Progress measurement rules and quantity tracking
  • Actual cost feeds, accruals, commitments, and invoices
  • Change log, approved variations, and rebaselining history
  • Previous dashboard packs and management reports

Typical outputs delivered

  • EVM dashboard with EV, PV, AC, CPI, SPI, CV, and SV
  • Narrative variance commentary and root-cause summary
  • Forecast pack with EAC, ETC, VAC, and trend interpretation
  • Contractor, work-package, or area-level performance drilldowns
  • Executive report for monthly or periodic governance meetings
  • Action tracker linked to recovery, productivity, or reporting fixes
FAQS

Frequently asked questions

EVM is a performance-management method that compares planned value, earned value, and actual cost to measure cost efficiency, schedule efficiency, and likely final outcomes.

No. It is especially valuable on major projects and programmes, but the principles can be scaled to suit medium-sized projects if the baseline and reporting structure are disciplined.

Yes. Solvix can build EVM around existing Primavera P6, MS Project, ERP, cost-reporting, and dashboard workflows, rather than forcing an entirely separate reporting environment.
