14th Annual IPM Conference Weekly Earned ValueF-35 Approach Suzanne West – Lockheed Martin Jim Hoshstrasser – Northrop Grumman Mike Brooks – BAE SYSTEMS 18 November 2002 Tysons Corner, Virginia
Introduction • Weekly EV Has Provided Value Through the Early Mitigation of Cost, Schedule, and Technical Risk Result Higher Probability of Achieving Program Plans
Weekly Earned Value Agenda • Weekly EVM as a Value Added Mgmt. Tool • F-35 Team – Weekly EV Approach • Lessons Learned
Proactive Measurement of Achievement of Detailed Plans 1 Sustained Focus on Key Program Events (IMP/IMS) and Risks 2 Weekly Management Review Ensures Corrective Action at the Earliest Possible Time 3 WEV – Value Added Management Tool
Is Not Is • A Financial Report • A weekly CPR • Closing the Books on a Weekly Basis • A Weekly Status of Total Contract $ Cost • A Requirement for More Detailed Schedules (e.g., Weekly Milestones) • A Program Management Tool • Weekly Measurement of Direct Labor EVM in Hours – No Surprises • A “Quick Look” at Labor Variances, Indices and Trends • Integrated With the Overall EVMS Processes and Data • A Continuous Engagement of Program and IPT Leaders in EVMS What is Weekly Earned Value? Coordination Among Teammates & Suppliers Essential

Do You Already Have the ToolsAvailable to Implement Weekly EV? • Do You Do Job Order Costing? • Do You Have Manufacturing Standards? • Do You Have Systems Which Provide Hourly, Daily, Weekly Information – Including Labor? • Do You Status BTPs Daily, Weekly Already? • If you Already Have these Tools / Processes, the Only Changes to Existing Processes for Weekly EV are: – IPTs/CSIs Assess Progress Against Milestones, CPI/SPI Variances that have Penetrated Thresholds, and Required Corrective Action/Explanations Weekly -- Develop Interfaces for Cost/Schedule Systems
Weekly EVMS Implementation Cost • Non-Recurring Cost: • Development of Interface(s) to Weekly Database • Initial EVMS/Weekly Hands-on Training • Recurring Cost: • Periodic Training • CSI Resource(s)? • Time Spent on Weekly Performance Assessment • Up-Front Planning Requires Minimal Additional Costs • Floor Systems and Accounting Systems Already Provide Most of the Required Information • IPTs / Business Management Personnel Already Having Weekly Reviews of Data
Weekly EVMS Requirements/Constraints • Requires Upper Management Commitment & Leadership • Training for IPTs and CSIs (Cost/Schedule Integrators) • Appropriate Up Front Planning and Occasional Re-planning • Disciplines Team Leaders to Make Weekly Assessment of Earned Value • Requires Strong Business Management Support to Integrate Data Our WEV Approach Adopted Best Practices
F-35 EVMS Approach • True “Partnering” Relationship with Teammates • Enable Real Time Cost/Schedule Data to the Entire Teams and Customer • Include Major Critical Suppliers • Manage as True IPTs – Irrespective of Company’s • “JSF First” • “Best Athlete” Manages Team • “Disney Friendly, FEDEX Fast” • Risk Reduction Approach We Are Committed to Managing the JSF SDD Contract Using Weekly Earned Value Including Major Critical Suppliers
Global Communication • Use Time Zones as an Advantage • Establish Process That Utilizes Extended Working Day • Manage Meeting Times / Appropriate Involvement • Utilize e-mail / Net Meetings / Telecons / File Transfer Wherever Possible 06:00 12:00 18:00 00:00 CST BAE SYSTEMS LM Aero (Ft Worth) NGC Data Review Data Exchange Meetings
