Integrated Project Controls Dashboard (IPCD) by Advanced EVM

Track project cost and schedule performance with automated Earned Value Management metrics.

Description

Improve project cost control and performance monitoring with this professionally designed Earned Value Management (EVM) Excel template. The tool helps project managers, planners, engineers, PMO teams, and business professionals track project progress, measure cost and schedule performance, and forecast project outcomes using industry-standard EVM techniques.

Simply enter your project data, including Planned Value (PV), Earned Value (EV), and Actual Cost (AC), and the template automatically calculates key performance indicators such as:

  • Cost Variance (CV)
  • Schedule Variance (SV)
  • Cost Performance Index (CPI)
  • Schedule Performance Index (SPI)
  • Estimate at Completion (EAC)
  • Estimate to Complete (ETC)
  • Variance at Completion (VAC)
  • Percentage Complete

The dashboard provides clear visual charts and performance indicators, enabling quick identification of cost overruns, schedule delays, and project risks. Whether managing construction projects, engineering contracts, manufacturing programs, IT implementations, or capital projects, this template delivers actionable insights for better decision-making.
