| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| If CPI (cost perfromance index) is GREATER than 1 | Money to spend (under budget) |
| If SPI (Schedule performance index) is LESS than 1 | Behind schedule |
| If SPI (Schedule performance index) is GREATER than 1 | Ahead of schedule |
| Cost variance (CV) | CV = EV-AC |
| Cost performance index (CPI) | CPI = EV / AC |
| Schedule performance index (SPI) | SPI = EV / PV |
| Schedule variance (SV) | SV = EV - PV |
| Earned value always goes first except in what equation? | TCPI = (BAC - EV) / (BAC - AC) |
| TCPI | TCPI = (BAC - EV) / (BAC - AC) |
| EVM | EVM = probability x impact |
| If CPI (cost perfromance index) is LESS than 1 | Over Budget |
| PERT | Expected duration = (O + 4M + P) ÷ 6 |
| The triangular distribution | The triangular distribution is a simple averaging technique that assumes equal weight for all three estimates; (O + M + P) ÷ 3 (NOT PERT) |
| Central point to share knowledge across enterprise. | PMO |
| ____ knowledge requires personal interaction | tacit |
| ____ Estimating enables the project manager to leverage existing data from similar public-sector efforts and adjust it appropriately. | Analogous |
| - High Influence & High impact = - High Influence & Low Impact = - Low Influence & Low Impact = - Low influence & High impact = | - High Influence & High impact = Manage Closely - High Influence & Low Impact = Keep Satisfied - Low Influence & Low Impact = Monitor Only - Low influence & High impact = Keep Informed |

| Feasibility of project | Business Case |
| Use available float to adjust a task without affecting overall schedule | Resource smoothing |
| Moving tasks further out, in sequence instead of parallel | Resource Levelling |
| IF TCPI is GREATER than 1 | Hard to complete with current resources |
| If TCPI is LESS than 1 | Easier to compete with current resources |
| Version control configuration changes | Configuration management plan |
| earned value reports (WOR) | Work performance reports |
| Process - Outlines change process and approvers | Change management plan |
