A Schedule-Performance Approach for Level-of-Effort Tasks

:Earned Value Management (EVM) includes several types of effort used to define work or tasks. Often in engineering and management, Level of Effort (LOE) is primarily used. The current problem is that LOE's schedule-performance measure contributes to program performance inaccuracies. In this article, a new model is presented based on an action database of two program cases. The results provide a new quantitative model that is more precise for LOE...
