CLV 020 Baseline Maintenance
(Last Modified:23-Apr-2015)

Description

The Baseline Maintenance module reviews the concepts associated with performance measurement baseline maintenance. It reviews the five earned value management system guidelines and three common terms associated with baseline maintenance. It describes the two most common charts used by earned value managers: the Contract Performance chart and the cost/schedule variance earned value management metrics chart. It continues by defining what a front-loaded baseline, rubber baseline, over-target baseline, and single-point adjustment mean in the context of earned value management. It concludes by using a hypothetical database to depict the effects of contract modifications, management reserve use, front-loaded baselines, rubber baselines, over-target baselines, and single-point adjustments upon the contract performance and cost variance charts.
