EVM stands for Earned Value Measurement
Earned Value Management (EVM) is a technique used to measure progress. It is used in project management to identify work, valuate and quantify the work.
Earned value management (EVM) is a project management technique that helps track a project's progress and performance in terms of cost and schedule. Some benefits of using EVM include: Early identification of project performance issues Improved forecasting and decision-making Enhanced communication and accountability among project team members Better control over project costs and schedules Increased likelihood of project success and on-time delivery.
Schedule Variance. It is the value of work done less the value of work that should have been achieved according to the plan, and forms part of Earned Value Management (EVM) project control processes.
Cost Performance Index. It is a way of determining the value of work done divided by the actual cost of doing the work at the point of assessment, and forms part of Earned Value Management (EVM) project control processes.
Earned value management, more commonly known as EVM, is used to measure project performance and advances from a nondiscriminatory perspective. It combines measurements of scope, schedule, and costs.
The key elements of a Project Management Office (PMO) for Environment, Health, and Safety Management (EHS) typically include establishing clear policies and procedures for EHS compliance, monitoring and reporting on EHS performance metrics, providing training and support to project teams on EHS best practices, and ensuring alignment of project activities with environmental regulations and sustainability goals.
Earned value management is a project management technique that enables the government to measure project performance by comparing planned work (budgeted cost of work scheduled) with actual work completed (budgeted cost of work performed). This allows the government to assess if the project is on track, over budget, or behind schedule.

EVM is a technique to monitor/track projects. EVM has 2 important index statistics: CPI and SPI. CPI is the cost performance index, and if it's >= 1 it means that the project is OK with the budget, if it's < 1, it means that the project is over-budget. SPI is the schedule performance index, and if it's >=1 it means that the project is on schedule or ahead of schedule, if it < 1, it means that the project is behind schedule.
Read a lot of books, memorize the PMBOK, and read a lot of Project Management papers, memorize all the formulas (especially those that have something to do with EVM).This article can be of great help: http://www.pmhut.com/tips-for-passing-the-pmp-exam
