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.

Hi Guys,

I prepare a recovery plan from last updated program, i was monitoring the progress based on total Budgeted Cost and all activities were Phisical % type. My project was in delay due to our mistake so i adjust the remaining duration by increasing the productivity and changing some logic. Now i want to use this as a new baseline so which values i have to use. Remaining total Cost or Budgeted total Cost as Planned Value?

I would recommend using as planned value, as if you are mitigating by using additional resources, which I assume is how you have adjusted your productivity, or longer working hours per period etc, your at complete cost will go up, so you need to compensate somehow.

50% of $100 is $50 so 50%, but 50% of your now $120 is not $50 anymore, if that makes sense.
