How does Bildstak do earned value management?

Bildstak delivers earned value management by loading your Primavera P6 schedule with cost data from your ERP (SAP, Maconomy or equivalent), then calculating CPI, SPI, EAC and variance at completion in real time — with every metric cited back to the source records.

Earned value management (EVM) requires three data streams to converge: the planned value from the programme, the actual cost from the accounts, and the earned value calculated from physical progress. In most projects those three live in different systems and are reconciled manually once a month, often too late to act on.

Bildstak connects the sources and keeps EVM live:

  • Planned Value (PV) — drawn from your Primavera P6 cost-loaded schedule, activity by activity.
  • Actual Cost (AC) — pulled from your ERP (SAP, Maconomy, or any connected cost ledger), matched to the programme's WBS or cost codes.
  • Earned Value (EV) — calculated from reported physical progress percentages on each activity.

With those three streams unified, Bildstak computes and presents:

  • CPI (Cost Performance Index) and SPI (Schedule Performance Index)
  • CV (Cost Variance) and SV (Schedule Variance)
  • EAC (Estimate at Completion) and VAC (Variance at Completion)

You can query at any level — the whole project, a package, a discipline, or a WBS node — and each answer is cited to the schedule and cost rows it was computed from.

For portfolio owners, Bildstak rolls EVM up across projects, so you can rank programmes by CPI and see which ones need intervention. Because the data is live rather than a monthly snapshot, trend lines and early-warning signals appear before the monthly report would have surfaced them.
