SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Project managers often lack a structured way to measure whether a project is on track, detect schedule and cost variances early, and control changes to approved baselines. This Skill operationalizes the PMBOK Monitoring & Controlling process group so performance measurement leads to corrective action instead of passive reporting. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Earned Value Management: Calculate PV, EV, AC, SV, CV, SPI, CPI, EAC, ETC, VAC, and TCPI with defined alert thresholds (SPI/CPI < 0.85 triggers immediate corrective action). - Integrated Change Control: Run the full CCB workflow from Change Request creation through impact evaluation, decision, and baseline updates. - Schedule, Quality, and Risk Control: Compress schedules via Fast Tracking or Crashing, log QC defects by severity, and keep the Risk Register updated each reporting period. - Use Case: During a weekly reporting cycle, compute SPI = 0.82 and CPI = 0.91, generate a performance report from the included template, escalate the schedule variance to the sponsor, and file a Change Request for re-baselining. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to run pm-monitoring for the current work package and produce a performance report with EVM metrics, change requests, and RAG status for this reporting period.

FAQPage Schema
How do I calculate earned value management metrics for a project?▼

Compute EV as percent complete times BAC, then derive SV = EV − PV, CV = EV − AC, SPI = EV/PV, and CPI = EV/AC. Project final cost with EAC = BAC/CPI and check feasibility with TCPI = (BAC − EV)/(BAC − AC).

What SPI and CPI thresholds require corrective action?▼

SPI or CPI between 0.90 and 1.10 needs only normal monitoring. Between 0.85 and 0.90 requires root-cause analysis and a correction plan reported to the sponsor. Below 0.85 demands immediate corrective action plus a Change Request if the baseline is affected.

How does integrated change control work in PMBOK?▼

Any change to scope, schedule, or cost baselines goes through the Change Control Board: identify the change, create a Change Request, evaluate impact across all areas, present to the CCB, implement if approved, then communicate and update baselines.

Can EVM be used in agile projects?▼

Yes, but percent complete is measured by story points or features delivered rather than hours worked. SPI and CPI keep the same interpretation, though schedule variance remains in monetary units rather than days.

What are the limitations of earned value management?▼

EVM requires an approved baseline with enough granularity to measure percent complete per activity, and it identifies what is happening without explaining why. Schedule variance is expressed in dollars, so Critical Path analysis is needed to quantify delays in days.
