Describes this concept which can be applied to any projects in any industry. It is intended for one-time-only projects, and portfolios of projects within an organisation. This new edition covers earned value measurements on project procurements (i.e. the materials, contracts and subcontracts that projects may issue) and makes recommendations on level of effort (LOE) tasks. Also suggests that company executives have a duty to their stockholders that requires the use of earned value on all projects that could impact upon company profits.
