The NASA Office of Chief Engineer is sponsoring an agency-wide Earned Value Management (EVM) Award of Excellence to be presented at the NASA PM Challenge Conference in Daytona Beach, Florida on February 26, 2008. The purpose of this award is to recognize leadership, excellence, innovation, and agility in the application of EVM on our projects. The award is intended for both NASA in-house EVM applications as well as NASA projects that actively use their contractor EVM deliverables to improve the management and forecasting of their contracted activities. All NASA projects that fit these guidelines are encouraged to apply.
