TMN, Issue 4, 2013: Measuring Schedule Adherence

In this article, published in 2013 in The Measurable News, the p-factor approach which is considered as a novel extension of Earned Schedule (ES) to measure the so-called schedule adherence is discussed. This schedule adherence concept is able to detect project impediments and risk of rework by only using the ES metric. This concept is not very widely known and therefore promoted in this and other articles. Click on the picture below to download the article.

Earned Value Management: Identifying the lack of schedule adherence

Controlling a project is key to the success or failure of the project. Earned Value Management (EVM) is a well-known technique to control the time and cost performance of a project and to predict the final project duration and cost. It is an easy tool to generate early warning signals to timely detect project problems or to exploit opportunities. An overview of the EVM metrics is given in “Earned Value Management: An overview” and the formulas are summarized in “Earned Value Management: The EVM formulary”.

In this article, a concept known as the p-factor will be discussed to measure the schedule adherence of a project in progress. The concept is based on the earned schedule metric as discussed in “Measuring Time: Earned value or earned schedule?”.
