The FAA has established a robust Earned Value Management System (EVM) policy aimed at improving program performance. Initiated in August 2005 and modified in January 2006, this initiative seeks to manage resources effectively in compliance with ANSI/EIA-748 standards. By promoting a program-level management approach, FAA aims to transform the contractor relationship and integrate EVM into all major investments. Goals for 2006 include full EVM implementation by FY07, while ongoing training and support will assist in achieving effective performance monitoring and resource management.

EVM at FAA • FAA EVM Policy and guide established August 2005 (modified in January 2006) • FAA goal is to manage entire program using EVMS in accordance with ANSI/EIA 748 • Manage/measure all resources • Requires changes in behavior by all parties • FAA EVM differs from legacy approach • Program level, not just contractors • Will not change existing contracts
EVM Council • Formed as a continuation of the program management processes effort • Co-Chaired by ATO-A and AIO • Membership includes: • ATO Service Unit representatives • Non-ATO Lines of Business implementing EVM • AIO representatives • CFO representatives
EVM Transformation – Goals for 2006 • EVM Council tracking POA&M status – most targets due in 2006 – if achieved, flag will turn to mostly yellow and green. • FAA to assess its financial processes against the ANSI standard & update its flag • FAA to issue a Layperson’s guide to EVM • FAA to issue a manager’s guide to using EVM • Technical Training to continue and will be supplemented by executive awareness training • EVM toolkit study
EVM Transformation – Goals for 2007 • Full EVM implementation by end of FY 07. • EVM part of Program Managers toolkit. • Full EVM reporting for all major investments. • EVM scores on Exhibit 300s are all “4” or “5”. • Use of EVM makes a major difference in ability of FAA programs to stay on track and within budget. • Use of EVM contributes to FAA “NAS Modernization Program” being removed from the GAO High Risk List.
