Define your project in KanBo by creating a new Workspace. Name it according to your project for easy recognition.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">2. Within the Workspace, create Folders for different aspects, like baseline planning, actual cost tracking, and variance analysis.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">3. Within these folders, set up Spaces that specifically cater to the critical aspects of EVM such as Cost Performance Index (CPI), Schedule Performance Index (SPI), and so forth.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Step 2: Develop the Project\u2019s Performance Measurement Baseline (PMB)<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Purpose:<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">To establish a baseline that will serve as a yardstick for measuring project performance.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Why:<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">Creating a baseline is critical in EVM for comparing planned work and budget to actual progress and cost, which helps in determining variances.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">1. Use Spaces to set up the WBS (Work Breakdown Structure) elements and associated budgets, formally known as Control Accounts.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">2. In each Space, use Cards to represent individual Work Packages or Planning Packages, with detailed scope, schedule, and cost information.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">3. Make sure to assign a Responsible Person and Co-Workers to each Card to clarify accountability.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Step 3: Implement a System for Tracking Actual Cost<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Purpose:<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">To record and track the actual costs as they accrue during the project execution.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Why:<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">Accurate tracking of actual costs is a cornerstone of EVM, as it allows for the analysis of cost performance against the PMB.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">1. Create a Space within your project Workspace dedicated to Actual Costs.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">2. Add Cards whenever actual costs are incurred, and maintain a ledger of these transactions against the corresponding Work Packages.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Step 4: Measure and Analyze Performance<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Purpose:<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">To determine the project's performance in terms of cost and schedule by calculating EVM metrics.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Why:<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">Regular performance measurement facilitates early detection of project issues, enabling timely and informed decision-making.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">1. Establish Card Relations to show dependencies and forecast potential impacts on project flow.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">2. On a bi-weekly or monthly basis, calculate EVM metrics such as CPI and SPI within the relevant Cards.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">3. Analyze variances from the PMB and document them in the Card\u2019s comments or attached files for traceability.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Step 5: Forecast and Update Project Status<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Purpose:<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">To provide forecasts that help predict the project's future performance and completion state.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Why:<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">Forecasting is essential for proactive management, helping steer the project back on track if it deviates from the plan.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">1. Use Gantt Chart view in KanBo for a visual representation of the project timeline and to assess time-related variances.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">2. Employ the Forecast Chart view to predict the Estimated Completion (EAC) based on current metrics.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">3. Update stakeholders with regular progress reports generated with KanBo\u2019s reporting features, which utilize real-time data for accuracy.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Step 6: Review and Adjust<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Purpose:<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">To assess the project's progress and make necessary adjustments to the PMB or project approach based on the metrics and forecasted outcomes.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Why:<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">Continuous improvement is necessary to ensure the project remains aligned with the set goals and responds to any issues promptly.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">1. Conduct reviews of EVM metrics with your team to identify areas needing adjustment.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">2. Modify Card Details like the budget at completion or schedules to reflect approved changes to the PMB.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">3. Document all changes transparently in KanBo to maintain an auditable history of updates and rationale for adjustments.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Step 7: Collaborate and Report<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Purpose:<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">To involve the project team, stakeholders, and decision-makers in the EVM process and provide them with up-to-date project health indicators.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Why:<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">Consistent and effective communication ensures alignment among the project team and with stakeholders; it also breeds confidence in the progress reporting.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">1. In the relevant Spaces within KanBo, set periodic meetings to discuss EVM findings.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">2. Use the Comments feature on Cards to communicate with team members about specific data or actions required.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">3. For external reporting, extract EVM reports by utilizing KanBo's export features and distribute these to necessary stakeholders for decision-making support.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">By following these steps and understanding the purpose behind each, you can leverage KanBo to effectively manage projects using EVM, ensuring alignment with both strategic objectives and project goals while maintaining an analytical approach to performance and resource management.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading naglowek-duzy\" id=\"section4\">Glossary and terms<\/h3><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Glossary of Project Management Terms<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\"> Introduction<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">In the realm of project management, a plethora of terms and jargon are used to describe various aspects and components involved in managing projects effectively.
