Earned Schedule Plus - H Lipke, Walter

. .

Résumé :
Earned Schedule Plus (ES+) is intended for project managers, engineers and performance analysts; that is, those who use Earned Value Management (EVM) with Earned Schedule (ES) for the purpose of project control. ES is an extension to EVM providing the capability of time-based management and control of schedule performance. After several years, tagged as an emerging practice, ES is now normalized to EVM with its inclusion in the Project Management Institute Practice Standard for Earned Value Management, and notably, in the International Standards Organization publication, ISO 21508:2018, Earned Value Management in Project and Programme Management. ES+ introduces analysis methods developed since publication of the Earned Schedule book in 2009. Along with the new methods, there are chapters on the need for measures of project performance, the origin and history of Earned Schedule, and the studies establishing the reliability of ES duration forecasting. The new and enhanced methods presented in ES+ include advances in ? Project duration forecasting ? Assessing project recovery ? Measuring the impact of rework on project cost and duration. The developmental research is included along with application examples to promote understanding and encourage use. Applying the advanced ES practices described in this book will significantly benefit project managers in their efforts to achieve successful projects.

Lipke achieved distinguished academic honors with the selection to Phi Kappa Phi. He is the creator of Earned Schedule (ES). Mr. Lipke has published over ninety articles on the method, as well as the Earned Schedule book. Additionally, he has presented research on ES and its schedule performance analysis methods at several conferences in the United States, and internationally. For his contribution to project control, the practice of EVM, and the creation of ES, Mr. Lipke has received several awards: ? 2007 Project Management Institute Metrics Specific Interest Group Scholar Award ? 2007 Project Management Institute Eric Jenett Award for Project Management Excellence ? 2013 Earned Value Management Europe Award ? 2014 College of Performance Management Driessnack Distinguished Service Award In 2017, the Australian Project Governance and Control Symposium honored Mr. Lipke by establishing the annual Walt Lipke Project Governance and Control Excellence Award. The award is made for excellence in research, expanding knowledge of the management and governance of projects, programs, and portfolios in Australasia.
