Earned Value Management Calculator

Free earned value management calculator. Enter PV, EV and AC to get SV, CV, SPI, CPI, EAC, ETC, VAC and TCPI, with eight performance charts and no sign-up.

Sample Project
—
Enter Planned Value (PV), Earned Value (EV), and Actual Cost (AC) to calculate key Earned Value Management indicators including SV, CV, SPI, CPI, EAC, ETC, VAC, and TCPI, with performance charts to assess the project’s cost and schedule health.

Project Setup

Performance Summary — Current Period

Period Data (enter cumulative values)

Enter three numbers per period — everything else (EV, SV, CV, SPI, CPI, EAC, ETC, VAC, TCPI) is calculated automatically. PV = planned value to date · AC = actual cost to date · % Complete = physical progress to date.

Period PV, cum AC, cum % Complete EV, cum SV CV SPI CPI EAC ETC VAC TCPI

Charts

S-Curve / Indices / Variance / Forecast are the core EVM views. Progress, TCPI vs CPI, VAC Trend and the Quadrant below add context: whether you're actually ahead or behind in plain %, whether hitting budget is still realistic, whether the forecast is trending better or worse, and which performance zone each period falls in.

How to use this tool

  1. Enter the project details and reporting date; replace any sample records.
  2. Add or import your records, then review the summaries and outstanding actions.
  3. Save the project and use the available export or print controls to share the current report.

Units & method

Use the dates, quantities and currency shown in the workspace. Keep one currency and a consistent reporting cut-off.

CPI = EV/AC, SPI = EV/PV, CV = EV − AC and SV = EV − PV. The workspace forecasts EAC = AC + (BAC − EV)/(CPI × SPI) when both indices are available; if only CPI is available, it uses BAC/CPI. This assumes the observed performance continues. Ratios with a zero denominator are undefined.

Worked examples

Illustrative inputs for checking the method; these are not project records.

Worked scenario

Example: PV = 100, EV = 80, AC = 90 gives CPI = 0.889, SPI = 0.800, CV = −10 and SV = −20. With BAC = 200, the combined cost/schedule forecast is EAC = 90 + 120/(0.888889 × 0.8) = 258.75.

Frequently asked questions

What does this tool calculate or track?

Which units and assumptions should I use?

Use the dates, quantities and currency shown in the workspace. Keep one currency and a consistent reporting cut-off. CPI = EV/AC, SPI = EV/PV, CV = EV − AC and SV = EV − PV. The workspace forecasts EAC = AC + (BAC − EV)/(CPI × SPI) when both indices are available; if only CPI is available, it uses BAC/CPI. This assumes the observed performance continues. Ratios with a zero denominator are undefined.

Can I save or share the result?

Use the save, export and print controls shown in this workspace. Where CSV export is available, the exported data can be opened in a spreadsheet. Browser print can save a PDF.

How to use the Earned Value Management (EVM) Calculator

Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded. If you are new to the tool, follow these steps in order.

1

See what the tool can do

Press Load Sample Data to fill the tool with a sample project and its reporting periods. Then scroll down the page:

  • Project Setup — project, client, currency, budget at completion (BAC), start date and period unit (month, week or quarter).
  • Performance Summary — Current Period — EV, SV, CV, SPI, CPI, EAC, ETC, VAC and TCPI for the latest period.
  • Period Data — one row per period with cumulative PV, AC and % complete; EV and the indices are calculated.
  • Charts — PV, EV and AC curves and the SPI/CPI trend.

The first time you open the tool (when there is no data of yours in this browser) the sample is loaded for you, so you can see how it works straight away. Replace it with your own entries, press + New Project / Clear All to start empty, or load your saved project.

Load Sample Data replaces the data in the tool. Save your own work first.

See how the data file looks

Press ⇩ Export Table (.csv). It downloads the periods and all calculated values as a CSV file that opens in Excel. Only these columns are needed for import:

ColumnWhat to enterExample
PeriodPeriod name (the heading must start with "Period")Month 3
PV (cum)Cumulative planned value1200000
AC (cum)Cumulative actual cost1310000
% CompleteCumulative % complete, 0–10034
3

Enter your own data and import it

Keep the heading row starting with Period and put your cumulative values underneath. Save it in Excel as CSV (Comma delimited). Then press ⇧ Import CSV and choose the file.

  • Columns are found by their headings: Period, PV…, AC… and % Complete. The calculated columns (EV, SV, CV, SPI, CPI and so on) are ignored and worked out again.
  • Enter cumulative values, not values for each period on its own.
  • Import replaces all periods. A file exported from this tool also brings back the project details.
4

Add, edit and delete rows

You can also work straight in the table on the page at any time, with or without a CSV:

  • + Add Period adds the next period. Type cumulative PV, AC and % complete into its cells.
  • The ✕ at the end of a row deletes that period straight away. There is no undo, so save your project first.
5

Save your project and open it later

💾 Save Project (.json) saves the project setup and all periods in one .json project file. 📂 Load Project opens that file again, on any computer.

The note beside the Save button tells you whether you have unsaved changes or when you last saved. If you try to close or leave the page with unsaved changes, the browser asks you to confirm first (not needed when Autosave is ticked, because your work is kept in this browser).

Use the project file for backups and for sharing with colleagues. Don't edit it by hand.

Print, PDF and report

  • 🖨 Print / Save as PDF prints the page as you see it, in print-friendly colours. To get a PDF, choose Save as PDF as the printer in the print dialog.
  • 📝 Generate Status Report (PDF) opens a formatted EVM status report in a new tab, ready to print or save as PDF. If nothing opens, allow pop-ups for this site.
7

Other buttons and options

  • Autosave in this browser (tick box) — while ticked, your work is kept automatically in this browser and comes back the next time you open the page. It stays only on this computer and browser. It is not a backup; use Save Project for that.
  • 👁 View Current Data shows all entered data in a window.
  • + New Project clears everything and starts a new project (it asks first).
8

Choose the date format

Press 📅 Date format in the toolbar and choose how dates are shown and typed in every date box: DD/MM/YYYY, MM/DD/YYYY, YYYY-MM-DD, DD-MM-YYYY, DD.MM.YYYY or DD-Mon-YYYY. Type a date in that format, or click the 📅 in a date box to pick it from a calendar. A date that doesn't fit the format is outlined in red and not accepted.

The same format is used in the printout and in the generated report and its PDF. It changes only how dates look — your saved project and CSV files are not affected. Your choice is remembered in this browser for every tool on this site.
