Office of Project Management (PM) Earned Value Management System Compliance Review Standard Operating Procedure (ECRSOP), dated July 5, 2022

The White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) requires federal agencies to implement an Earned Value Management System (EVMS) compliant with the Electronic Industries Alliance Standard 748 (EIA-748) guidelines, current version or other as required by contract, on major capital acquisitions due to their importance to the agency mission. The Department of Energy (DOE) implements this requirement through DOE O 413.3B, Program and Project Management for the Acquisition of Capital Assets, which requires the Office of Project Management (PM) to establish, maintain and execute a documented EVMS compliance assessment process. This Office of Project Management (PM) EVMS Compliance Review Standard Operating Procedure (ECRSOP) serves as a primary reference for PM's determination of compliance. This Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) provides guidance for PM staff and PM support contractors performing EVMS compliance reviews in accordance with established thresholds in DOE O 413.3B to ensure full compliance with Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) and OMB compliance requirements. This standard operating procedure provides detailed processes for PM to implement the requirements in DOE Order (O) 413.3B, consistent with guidance provided in DOE Guide (G) 413.3-10B, Integrated Project Management Using the EVMS.

Appendices include the Compliance Assessment Governance (CAG) 2.0, EVMS Compliance Reference Crosswalk (CRC), and EVMS Testing Specification Sheets.
