EVMS
1994 - Gary Christle “Vision”
“The quality of a management system is
determined not by the absence of defects, but by
the presence of management value.”
2001 - Lockheed Martin Model
Earned Value Management institutionalized
within the organization will provide useful
performance measurement data for
management decisions
Lockheed Martin
E V M S M o d e l - Joint Attributes
The New Paradigm provides an environment where:
• The Lockheed Martin implements EVMS to manage
projects.
• Both Lockheed Martin and the Buyer use EVMS in a
meaningful way on an ongoing basis to make
informed decisions affecting the project.
• Lockheed Martin continually seeks opportunities to
enhance its EVMS capabilities and data utilization.
Lockheed Martin
E V M S M o d e l - Joint Attributes
• The Buyer will not interfere with Lockheed Martin’s
ability to implement, maintain and use its system,
consistent with the ANSI/EIA 748-1998, so long as the
EVMS data depicts current performance.
– The Buyer will not judge the “adequacy” of the EVMS
in advance of actual performance .
– Lockheed Martin will use appropriate system
assurance measures to ensure its system is
consistent with ANSI/EIA 748-1998
– On going use will support self correction and
supportable EACs

CHALLENGES
• NASA recognition of CPS-026 and ANSI/EIA 748-1998
in the MOU being executed with DCMA
• Integrating PROGRAM DATA not just using EVM
indices in assessments of contract EACs
• Integrating Joint Surveillance and RAMP to arrive at a
risk rating and application of DCMA resources
• Program surveillance should not address the system
until program discipline has been eliminated as root cause
• System compliance can be ensured by mapping EVMS
outputs with the 32 guidelines
• Annual 32 guideline compliance reviews should be
replaced with an EVMS change management process
