- Abstract
- Defense R&D projects aim to successfully develop a weapons system under time and budget constraints. Using effective project management tools is essential for achieving this goal. Certain project management tools can measure performance by integrating the technical, cost, and schedule parameters. For instance, EVM (earned value management) and CAIV (cost as an independent variable), were first applied in the defense sector. These tools provide periodically measurable and relatively comparable metrics in a multi-project environment. In this study, we present a method of evaluating the relative efficiency of multiple ongoing projects using objective data and indicators available from project management tools in weapons system development. © 2020, ICIC International.
