Key Resources

Here’s a brief summary of the key Earned Value resources on this blog:

  • Earned Value in two sentences: Earned Value in a Nutshell
  • Introduction, from a Agile perspective: Agile Charts
  • Introduction, from a classic Earned Value Management (aerospace/DoD) perspective: Software Tech News article (was also re-printed in the PMI’s Measurable News)
  • A comprehensive 30 page article, compatible with both the agile and traditional approaches to Earned Value.
  • Video: “An animated graphical introduction to Earned Value” -  I’ll be publishing a link shortly.  Check back here in July or subscribe to this site’s RSS feed to be notified when it becomes available.
  • “Starter kit” spreadsheet (released with the kind permission of my employer): Starter Kit
  • Guidelines for successfully using the starter kit: Rules of the Green Line
  • Finally, if you’re interested in an agile project management tool with automatic earned value, check out Tactyle.  I designed it according to the principles described in this blog.
