Earned Value

Earned Value (EV) definition for contractors. Learn the power of measuring the actual value of work performed against your budget.

Calculation Formula

EV = % Actual Completion × BAC

Real Contractor Example

You should be 40% done (PV=$400k), but you are actually only 35% done with a $1M project. Your EV is $350,000.
