DoD issues earned value management guide

The Department of Defense (DoD) has issued a new Earned Value Management Systems Interpretation Guide, which aims to pull together and streamline DoD rules for evaluating contractors’ earned value management systems (EVMS) compliance.

According to DoD, the Guide seeks to:

  • Reduce compliance burdens by promoting consistent application of EVMS compliance assessments across DoD,
  • Emphasize the need for clear and measurable technical objectives for planning, performance measurement, and managing the baseline, and
  • Show how program-unique management practices can be consistent and compliant with broader EVMS guidelines.
