Services and Training to Ensure Success
Deltek can help integrate Earned Value Management with your existing project, schedule and cost management tools. But, software
alone will not get you to Earned Value success. A successful implementation and speedy user adoption of Earned Value will require
just the right mix of People, Training, Process and Technology.
Deltek’s EV Essentials Solution expands your EV Foundation by Introducting Earned Value Management
fundamentals through:
Our implementation consultants work with you to deploy only the processes needed without creating additional overhead. And,
our training focuses on maximizing user adoption and making Earned Value Management successful.
As part of EV Essentials, and depending on your needs, Deltek offers fixed cost implementation and training that will get you up and
running in just 3 to 6 weeks. We also recognize that all implementations are unique so our implementation consultants work with
you to tailor your implementation and training timeline based on the EV Essentials framework. At the conclusion of training, your
team will be able to produce contract performance reports using wInsight and MPM in support of your contractual requirements.
The Basic Service includes everything you need to get started including training your team and your first CPR. And the Full Service
helps organizations that need more help with process development, procedures, guides, multi reporting and training.
