Complementary Webinar: Federal Agency Multi-Award Contract Qualifications - Implementing a ‘Best in Class’ Earned Value Management System
The Federal Government has recently completed solicitations for several large Multi-Award Contracts (MAC) for which Government Contractors who bid were required to provide proof they have implemented approved business systems. The Government has set a ‘High Bar’ for awards and expects contractors to demonstrate they have implemented ‘Best in Class’ management processes.
Previous solicitations include GSA OASIS, GSA ASTRO, HHS NITAAC CIO-SP4, and pending solicitations such as State Department EVOLVE Contract. These solicitations offer significant opportunities for small and medium size government contractors to transform their businesses.
One important business system which has been identified in these solicitations is demonstrating that your organization has implemented a fully compliant Earned Value Management System (EVMS). Earned Value Management (EVM) has been embraced by the Federal Government as a critical project management discipline to ensure that federal programs are completed on-time and within the allocated budget. FAR and DFARs Earned Value Management System (EVMS) clauses are typically included in development contracts and require compliance with the EIA-748 EVMS standard.
Many small and medium size government contractors have not invested in implementing a compliant EVMS and this provides an opportunity for you to differentiate your organization and your proposal.
In addition, if initial proposal points were claimed during the bidding process by government contractors and they received an award, then they must maintain an EVMS which is compliant with the EIA-748 standard. The EVMS must be approved by a Cognizant Federal Agency (CFA).
