  • Usually tracks fields like ID, description, owner, status, dates, and actions.
  • Supports transparency, accountability, and informed decision making.

This is not abstract theory. You’ll work step by step through Earned Value Management (EVM), learning how cost, schedule, and scope come together to show true performance. You’ll build a solid foundation in EVM concepts, understand why formulas work, and learn how performance data actually supports leadership decisions.
