“…For this research study, I used semi-structured interviews with open-ended questions with thematic analysis for this research objective. Semi-structured interviews yielded data that could lead to a problem map (Avlijaš et al, 2015). Semi-structured interviews are a qualitative method of exploration that combines a pre-decided set of open-ended questions, which allows the interviewer to explore themes (Sharma & Sagar, 2018).…”

This research proposed analyzing projects from a risk uncertainty perspective by using EVM to predict the systemic (Epistemic Risk) and provisioning (Aleatory risk) uncertainties to achieve project success. The results of the study synthesized empirical findings with theories and concepts. To bridge the gap, this research study focuses on minimizing or alleviating epistemic and aleatory risk uncertainties. The research method included a qualitative exploratory study with thematic analysis. The participants for the study were project managers with a PMP certification and EVM knowledge who worked on government contract requirements and members of the local chapter of the Project Management Institute.

“…Traditional methods discuss only planned and an actual cost while Earned Value goes further and show the manager early warning for problems on the project before they become uncontrollable. Earned Value Management (EVM) is a set of guidelines that guide a company's management control system (Avlijas, et al, 2015). This study aims at reducing the gap between theory and practice and to contribute to the wider use of Earned Value Management (EVM) methodology in the construction industry in Zanzibar.…”

Many construction projects in developing countries including in Zanzibar suffer from time and budget overruns. The Revolution Government of Zanzibar established different bodies such as Zanzibar Contractors Registration Board (ZCRB), Zanzibar Architects, Engineers and Quantity Surveyors Registration Board (ZAEQRB), Zanzibar Public Procurement and Disposal of Public Asset Authority (ZPPDA), among others with the aim of controlling the performance of project. Often scope creep, time and cost overruns are very common problems in construction projects. This study aims at addressing those problems by assessing the use of Earned Value Management (EVM) methodology in measuring construction industry performance in Zanzibar. The study used purposive sampling to select the sample. A self-administered questionnaire and round table discussions were deployed to architects, engineers, project managers, and quantity surveyors for data collection. Also, a case study design was employed whereby four ongoing construction projects were used as samples to collect data. The data were processed using Microsoft Excel where Chi- square, ANOVA, and Earned Value Analysis (EVA) were used to analyze the data. The study findings indicate that majority of key players of construction industry of Zanzibar were unaware of the EVA as a tool for monitoring the performance of the projects, although they practice EVMS to some extent. Also, all four cases used in this study, indicated underperformances in terms of scope, time and cost parameters.

“…Based on the research by Avlijas, et.al [6], by using EVM methods, project performance can be monitored in terms of cost and the project duration against the initial plan. As mentioned earlier that monitoring & controlling project means suggest corrective action if the variance or the gap exist.…”

Fiber to the home (FTTH) is the current project that awarded by XYZ company to vendors. This project experience several months delay against the baseline. To meet the due date both parties want to give a proper corrective action toward the project. Since the project is still completing the remaining task, the project manager should perform controlling method in order the remains tasks do not deviate from current the baseline. Earn Value management has been used as a method to control the project. From EVM calculation it can be obtained that the schedule performance for this project is 0,86 which means the project is behind schedule and only progressing 86%. The deviation occur since material can't be carried out by supplier.
