Hello,
I am running a project using earned value to measure performance. From a
posting by Jim Aksel in this forum, I have chosen to use physical % complete
to register the progress. It has been working fine so far. But now I have a
problem that I do not now how to solve in this particular case.
In the project, we have discovered that we need to do an extra prototype
generation of the PCB:s. Since we should have thought about this earlier, I
would not consider it to be a baseline change. I want to add tasks that
relate to doing that work. In theory, the earned value/planned value for the
project as a total decreases, since the scope of work increased. But when
only using physical % complete (as opposed to % complete), the addition of
new tasks does not affect the earned value, does it? It would still be the
same independent of how many tasks I add.
Could anyone shed som light on what I should do with my plan in this
situation?
Thanks,
Peter
