EVMS Certification
� Software is not ‘EVMS certified’, much like timekeeping software is not DCAA certified
either.
� When contract size justifies (typically $50M per year) DCMA may evaluate and certify an
organization’s specific EVMS procedures & processes (often called an EVMS Process
Description). The evaluation would include:
� comparison of their formal EVMS Process Description with the ANSI/EIA 748 Guidelines
(identifying which, if any, are not appropriate and why)
� evaluation of training programs for staff in appropriate EVMS knowledge, and
� review of the ongoing internal EVMS Surveillance program to ensure that the EVMS procedures &
processes are adhered to.
� One part of the certification process would look at how software tools are used to
support the formal process in the following areas:
� Estimating
� Scheduling
� Budgeting
� Financial Accounting System
� Cost Management (integration of ACWP, BCWS, BCWP)
� Reporting
