Hi all,

 

Im working on a project i did not build the schedule for.  the two activities that started this week are both critical and we are on course to finish on time but the budget labour units for both activities is 1600 hrs we will complete it in around 900 roughley.  When im putting this infor into excel for my S cure i just need the cumm planned and cumm actual.  obviousley the planned labour has been over estimated but this does not look any good for my s curve when it says we should be at 8% and we are at 5%.  is it just something that will have to be left or should i change if possible the budgetd labour units or has any one got any advise on what they would do?

Thanks for sll your help

 

Regards

 

Leighton

    I note that you are missing a vital point in your S-Curves. The S-curves should have three values. These are:

    1. Planned value (PV)
    2. Earned value  (EV)
    3. Actual Value (  AV)

    So, you have three curves. For progress in time and performance, you compare the planned versus the earned value. For costs, you compare earned value and actual value. The value can be hours or money.
