Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Does anybody have examples of project, programme, portflio or corporate one page monthly reports that make significant use of EV. I am particularly intrested in what other project data is presented to management besides EV indicators and values to prevent management by CPI index.

Have you considered using the ones proposed by Lipke, or similar (SPI(t), SV(t),IEAC(t),...)?

There is an academic paper at Ghent’s University site.

Cheers.

Something like:-

No of milestones achieved vs planned ?
Achieved % Complete vs Planned ?

etc


If you are comparing projects across a portfolio, then pick on the things that are common between them .

Actually, (IMHO) this is one of the more useful ways CPI (or SPI) can be used.
