Speaker:  Javier Sloninsky – EcoSys Summary:  EcoSys discusses best practices in bringing together cost, schedule, and EVM systems to create integrated program management processes. Using the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) Terminal Automation Modernization and Replacement (TAMR) program as a case study, we will explore how the EVMS/cost controls system for the TAMR program takes into account the unique challenges of managing a large federal program supporting critical national infrastructure, including: --Managing costs throughout the entire lifecycle from funding to budget formulation to bids/proposals through delivery. --The ability to proactively make program adjustments and take corrective action based on accurate and predictive cost performance data. --Adaptable earned value rules meeting different needs while adhering to ANSI 748 audit requirements.
