When EVMS systems start to fail, the issue is rarely isolated. Misalignment between scope, schedule, and cost compounds quickly — leading to unreliable performance data, loss of control, and increasing scrutiny.
Broken EVMS systems rarely fail in one place. The breakdown is systemic — recovery requires addressing root causes, not symptoms.
Frequent changes, weak baseline change control, and lack of traceability undermine the integrity of the Performance Measurement Baseline.
Reported metrics do not reflect actual execution, and variances cannot be reconciled with what the program team knows to be true.
Integration between schedule logic and cost account structures has broken down, making performance measurement meaningless.
CAMs and analysts no longer trust the system. Workarounds have replaced the intended process.
Rebuild WBS, control accounts, and work packages to reflect how work is actually performed — not how it was originally planned.
Restore integration so performance measurement reflects real execution and can be trusted month over month.
Address root causes driving instability rather than broad, disruptive changes that create more risk than they resolve.
Ensure teams can rely on the system to manage, measure, and control the program through the recovery and beyond.
Programs where EVMS was implemented but is no longer functioning effectively under execution conditions.
Systems requiring correction before DCMA review or increased scrutiny from program leadership.
Breakdowns between scheduling, cost, and controls functions that have compounded over time.
Programs at or above the $50M and $100M DFARS thresholds requiring restored control, defensible baselines, and DECM surveillance readiness.
If your system is showing signs of breakdown, a conversation about where it stands costs nothing.
