I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e Earned Value Analysis from DAES Input Usually on Cost Plus type contracts over $6M Primary purpose of SAF/AQXR analysis is to determine an independent completion cost estimate Based on cost and schedule performance to date Compare to Contract Value less Fee (Contract Budget Base) Compare to Contractor’s and PM’s completion estimate May also highlight cost and schedule variance issues Only addresses contract performance, not total program

I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e Variances Graph Purpose: Early warning of funding problems Compares cost & schedule variances within a +/- 10% control limit. Also plots use of management reserve Primary value: Expect cost and schedule variances to be within the 10% variance bands. If overrunning at 15-20% complete -- will finish that way CV% will not improve by more than 10% (10% Rule) Secondary value: Track Management Reserve Usage Early use of MR may suggest poor planning, and masks CV Secondary value: Estimate variance at completion: Straight Line Method: extrapolate the CV to the completion time to determine the potential overrun Tertiary value: shows re-baselines Resetting of CV and SV to 0 (saw tooth effect)

I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e EAC Graph Purpose: Tests realism of completion estimates Compares baseline Budget at Completion (BAC) to Contractor's Estimate at Completion (EAC) using Cumulative CPI as a control measure Primary value: EAC should be at or above Cum CPI Statistically, Cum CPI forecast represents the LOWEST cost at which a contract will complete EAC’s below Cum CPI should be questioned for believability Secondary value: Does contract have enough money? If contract is experiencing unrecoverable costs, EAC should be higher than BAC Additionally, BAC’s lower than Cum CPI indicate need for money

I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e EAC Graph Another realism test for completion estimates is TCPI vs CPI TCPI and CPI should be within 5% of each other for a believable Completion Estimate. If differ by more than 10% the Estimate is underestimated TCPI can be based on both the Budget or the Estimate TCPI: To-Complete Cost Performance Index TCPI is an indicator of how efficient the contractor needs to be from now on in order to finish the contract at the BAC or EAC. Since CPI reflects the historical efficiency, it is very difficult to make large changes between the two. TCPI: To-Complete Cost Performance Index TCPI is an indicator of how efficient the contractor needs to be from now on in order to finish the contract at the BAC or EAC. Since CPI reflects the historical efficiency, it is very difficult to make large changes between the two. BAC - BCWP EAC - ACWP TCPI = TCPI is the CPI of the remaining work

I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e Expected Completion Estimate Comparison of Contract Budget Baseline (CBB) to Contractor, PM and SAF/AQXR Completion Estimates CBB = Contract Value less Fee May include Over Target Baseline (OTB) data Exception basis for contracts with large cost overruns to date For Earned Value purposes only, the value of the Work Plan is set higher than the CBB. Not a contractual change Remaining work is replanned and cost and schedule variances usually reset to 0 Definite contract cost overrun of at least the OTB amount If root cause not corrected, overrun could be even higher

I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e Example: B-1 CMUP DSUP - Expected Completion Estimate Contract Budget Baseline: Mega Hertz Estimate: PM Estimate: AQXR Low: AQXR High: % Complete: 33 $20.8M $20.7M $22.0M* $22.4M $23.1M $20$22 $24 * PM’s estimate includes all items currently on contract, as well as estimated additional costs for future contract modifications expected due to GFE delays and reduced raw materials availability. Mega Hertz and AQXR estimates include only those items currently on contract.

I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e Sample Program - EVMS Issues Cost variance trend continues to degrade Contractor and SPO completion estimates statistically unrealistic. Completion estimates assume remaining work will be performed at a cost efficiency of 1.04 Historical Cost efficiency To date = month avg = 0.951, 6-month avg = Work remaining = $13.9M Cost to complete estimate = $13.4M AQXR Questions: Contractor has historically performed all work at higher cost than planned Completion estimate assumes all remaining work can be completed for less than planned costs Assuming the estimates are realistic, and all cost variances to date are unrecoverable, what measures are in place to complete the remaining $13.9M of work for $13.4M?

What is the biggest impediment on your critical path? Impact of Contract Performance (Earned Value) on funding Will this program create either a bill (overrun) or source (underrun) for current year execution?
